Old Waverly C&G trestle
Title:  Old Waverly C&G trestle
Description:  This is bridge was abandoned by the CAGY in 1984 after being struck by a barge that had broken loose upstream. Appearing to be a daylight shot, this was actually just shy of midnight with a full moon. 30 second exposure. For me the only thing missing were a few rod and reels.
