Along the Spokane, Portland, & Seattle highline just west of Spokane. Line was built 1906 - 8. Once sported deep yellow-green 160 BFNY's with drips. McL and Maydwell hoops still in the air today. Wrecking crew is working westward about a mile east of here. Soon it will be gone forever. With a mile lead on a 30 mph train, the kid and I ran from about the middle of where this train is captured to the trestle bridge to get this shot.
