Big train comin'

Another view of the Salmon Bay drawbridge, this time from the old Ballard station site just north of the bridge. The bridge's counterweight, the large concrete slab hanging over the rails, looks particularly menacing. The BNSF Railway lines east to Chicago and north to Vancouver, BC, both use the bridge and it's busy all day long.
