Two days ago (30 Oct 2010), I was at this same location trying out my newly acquired DSLR and "caught" same exact train, with the same exact units on point, however from the other side of the trestle and from a lower perspective looking up at the trestle. I had a setting wrong on my newly acquired Sony A350 DSLR, and the images came out a touch blurry. I came back to do better!

Many thanks to Derrick (the homeowner that has granted myself and my son Joe access to his backyard) to get the perpsective.

As you can see, his property has a great vantage point and overlooks the trestle, lake, dam, waterfalls...

That is the Esopus Creek running uder the trestle.

What a great spot!
