While waiting to collect our pie, I checked the ASMTRANSITDOCS.com app on my phone and saw that Amtrak&nbsp;<em>Keystone<\/em>&nbsp;670 was just a few minutes away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I dropped the pizza with Kris, who was waiting in the car. \u201cThis will only take a couple of minutes.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I walked briskly to the bridge, Nikon Z in hand. I arrived in just enough time to check the northside and southside angles before I heard the approaching train.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I opted for these down-on trailing views that show the curve in the line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On reflection, I realized how few photos I have of the ACS-64 electrics from above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Total elapsed time for this detour was less than five minutes. The pizza was still hot!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"474\" height=\"316\" data-attachment-id=\"45138\"
