For these views I opted for a more southerly position on the road bridge in order to feature budding trees that indicates the arrival of Spring in the Millers valley.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Working with my Lumix LX7, I exposed several digital views as the train\u2019s leading locomotives eased over the antique spans. To me, the SD45\/SD40 style locomotives&nbsp;&nbsp;seem out of proportion with the steam era bridge, which of course is half the attraction, long may it last!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure
