Fred G Posted August 5, 2009 Share #1 Posted August 5, 2009 Before I arrived at the Transit Museum I visited Smith-9th to see the extent of construction. Exiting the portal after Carroll Street, I saw the express tracks are removed until about somewhere on the curve on the Culver Viaduct. The newly erected barricades have changed the landscape of the station in terms of the view. This isn't to gripe as they are vital to worker safety and train operation. Intermission, of sorts, here as I attended the TM fan trip. After the R9's cruised by the sun began to peek out so I stayed at Smith-9th for a while. I wanted to see more R160's and the light kept getting better. Thanks for looking. Here is the album these photos came from Enjoy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
