CSX A-Line Bridge

These are all shots of the CSX A-Line Bridge. near down town Richmond, VA. As I understand it the bridge was originally called the RF&P/ACL Railroad Bridge. It was built in 1919. My friend, Carl, and I went down to get these shots. It was a lot of fun, and at first a mystery as to how to get to that part of the river to get these images.
