PJ, I especially like how the steam locomotive's wheel show. This is always hard to show being black on black. Being old and faded probably helps, but you still did a fine job. The 1890's swing bridge looks good. We have one of similar vintage in Rock Island, Illinois. I'd suggest including some closer-up photos of the ironwork. I'm always inpressed by the contrast between old and new bridgework. The old bridgework is like lace - holy with rivits holding it all together. The new bridgework is more like extruded plastic in special shapes, no economy in the use of steel. Regards, Bob S.
