Remarks & Notes |
Lake Pontchartrain is a brackish estuary located in southeastern Louisiana. It covers an area of 630 square miles with an average depth of 12 to 14 feet. Its roughly 39x24 miles wide and length, and for some reason the railroad built right thru it. Today NS NO&NE Subdivision crosses this lake on a 5.5 miles long bridge. Here the 2nd eastbound of the morning is lead by 3 BNSF motors. The train cruises across the long bridge around 40 mph which is the max speed over the drawbridge part in the background. |
