In April, a family emergency required a quick trip to Omaha. Avoiding cities where ever we could we found this road, highway 350 northeast out of Trinidad, Colorado on the Santa Fe / Raton Pass line. Out bound we noticed that nearly every single railroad bridge was different from the next, so we decided to document it on our return trip. Over a distance of about 37 miles we photographed over 20 different bridges. My uncle, Tom Liddy spent his retirement on a huge ranch in western Nebraska. I once heard him say on a trip to Phoenix that his definition of traffic was "another car on the road". That's pretty much how it is out here. We wanted a picture, we just stopped...Enjoy!
This illustrates that there do not have to be hard and fast rules on your railroad. All of these were all a mile or so apart and only a couple of them were the same.
