Duckunder

The pre-ship canal GN main, now Ballard Terminal trackage, ducks under the BNSF mainline near the locks.

Image from May 12, 2010. It took a while to grow on me.

Seaview

One of my favorite view spots is on Seaview Avenue Northwest, across from the new crossovers.

Today I had no sooner parked and opened my book when I heard a suspicious sound approaching.

Not only was it a train, but it was a rarity: a train of company business equipment, either inspecting or in transit.

This is a better place for watching than for photographing, especially to get more than just the locomotive(s).

So I went up the hill for a full-train shot. Hazy through the rain, but again, it is a favorite spot for watching, not photographing.
