Train on turntable
ready to go in roundhouse
Detroit, Mich
Taken off from Ambassador Bridge"
A little something for the railfans, today. In the near foreground is a bit of the Pere Marquette's enormous roundhouse, and off beyond the turntable is just a wee piece of PM's also-enormous riverfront yard.
I rather like the bridge shadow on the roof and tracks.
The bridge was about a decade old when this photo was taken. The roundhouse, which predated the bridge, is long gone, now. The still-large yard is just a shadow of its former self.
