    That’s a really cool angle James. Good eye. It will very likely never be repeated.

    An angle I have never seen before! Though 580 doesn’t go to SC Johnson anymore does it…so this really is never to be repeated.

    It would be neat to see this spot when the TH&B crossed here and there was a diamond/signal….

    Thanks for the comments guys!
    and HTG, this bridge is the former CN Burford Sub….TH&B would cross the second bridge

    The track that 580 is on was formerly the LE&N. The truss bridge once carried the CN Burford Sub. over the Grand River. The TH&B crossed the Grand River downstream on the girder bridge. Steve, I think the diamond/signal you are referring to was actually the CN/LE&N crossing.
