Rolled just less than 5 miles from here, a relic from the past in the form of a CF&I tie plate still does its job of holding rail in place even though this rail hasn’t seen a wheel pass over it in a quite a few decades.
All those shots of interesting railroad details, what you see trackside, up close and personal! Excludes shots going into my other albums: "Engine Details," "Signal Details," and "Switchstand Shots."
