The KB&S has a rather...unique...bridge setup at Iroquois Junction:

ZOX,

 Your photo really makes me miss this area. My grandma lives less than three miles from this bridge. I can remember the KBS banging cars that were stored on the tracks together when I spent time on the farm in the 80's.

 I have taken a ton of pics of this bridge and measurements to make a display layout but I have never gotten around to it. The bridge part alone is 575' long and if you want to go from the bridge abutment on the left to where the tracks join on the right it's around 1400'. Not really something you can model without some selective compressioning.  Maybe someday.

Thanks for the photo. I'll add some of my own in the future.

An attempt at a nest:

Great nest and scene!

Since there is so much talk about blind, low clearance bridges. Here is one I drive under every day to go to and from work...



It's a pretty good racket when you can time driving with the sunroof open under a trio of SD40-2's as they cross over you.

Don't put your hands up Tony.  You might loose something. 
That's low.

Not much to report.  Just picked up a couple cars and a old Nu-Line Santa Fe Deopt kit. Driving through all the fileds here, I'm trying to figure out how to model them; tomatoes, bell peppers, strawberries, and the like by the mile.
