Remarks & Notes 
That same old St. Augustine bridge shot, but 25 years ago. Not much has changed about the scene (other than the power) over the years, nor the location. Occasionally people will comment about this location being over photographed but the reality is St. Augustine is one of the best locations on the FEC for the most number of freight trains in good light you can get. Just as there was when this photo was taken, there is still a fleet of three weekday morning northbounds from sunrise until about 10am, a southbound local after that which returns in the afternoon, the early afternoon 105 hotshot, and then southbounds beginning early evening. Same as it was, same as it is, and don't go on a weekend. The St. Augustine rules remain.
