Thanks Cindy, yes I think regardless I will continue filming and uploading in 4K from now on.

Thank you, They inspect this bridge quarterly and they have wind sensors on it and if the wind is above 45mph there is a speed reduction that is automatically placed on trains with a white signal at both approaches of the bridge about 2 miles back. some empty grain cars were blow right off this bridge on a train 5 years ago so it can be pretty bad.

Thanks so much

It sure was a nice clean looking video with all that white!

Thanks John, I agree this video is great with the extra contrast of the sunshine and white snow.

Thank you I really enjoy filming there and with the white backdrop lasting only a few days because a week later so today there is no snow left. It’s all melted. It’s been so warm.

It truly is an engineering marvel and yes seeing a steamer go across that bridge would be spectacular. I really hope that CN 6060 gets running again and maybe they’ll do a cross Canada trip with it. One can only hope.

Thank you John! I wish it was just a little closer as I would film there more often.

Yes it was very busy that day. in 5 hrs I saw 18 trains between there and Tofield where the tracks paradelle the highway. The snow sure helps with contrast

Thank you very much

Thank you very much. It is an enjoyable location to film for sure.

Thank you so much. It was an amazing day to be filming there. If you would go back there today only a week later, there would be no snow. It’s all melted.

@@TonyVRailfanning wow!

Yeah, you just never know when you’re out filming what you will see I love mix manifests they are definitely the most interesting trains to see

Thank you Gerry, much appreciated!

Indeed it is, thanks for watching

Thank you Hunsbuckel, for a winter scene it does not get a lot better than this.

Thanks! Hope your doing well

@@TonyVRailfanning No problem, you too!

Thank you, where is that abandoned bridge? I am not familiar with it

@@TonyVRailfanning it's off the C&E trail between red deer and penhold. It's pretty hard to see now due to tons of residential development, and you can't get close to it anymore, but you can still see it for a quick bit from the highway, and get a great view of it if your going down the river.

@@djteako Thank you. I have this spot bookmarked and will fly the drone to it at some point in the spring.

Thank you. The trains against the white backdrop of the snow makes them really pop. It’s a really enjoyable spot to film in the winter time.

Hi and thanks for commenting. That Salmon river Bridge has always caused confusion. I am aware of that bridge and the numbers speak for themselves however because the wooden trestle is still burred under the west embankment. Some still consider it part of the bridge. Is the Salmon river bridge part of the CN mainline?

@@TonyVRailfanning I took another look at the Battle River bridge and while it is similar in construction to CNs Little Salmon River Bridge it does appear to have a trestle section. The Little Salmon River Bridge has trestle style bridge bents but are not connected just at the top with through deck girder bridge sections. And you are right. everyone has a view on what is a bridge or a trestle and even what to call them at times. The Little Salmon River bridge is on the mainline for trains heading to and from Moncton and the rest of Canada. CN Napadogan sub mainline actually crosses two different Salmon Rivers. The timetable page in the Canadian Trackside Guide shows where both of the bridges are on the Napdaogan Sub,

@@KevsRailfanning Thanks again for the info. On a future video of this area I will mention this.

@@TonyVRailfanning No problem. I have been shooting videos for quite a while but only just started an KZfaq channel (Kevs Railfanning). I do have several video of trains crossing CNs Little Salmon River Bridge posted there that you can view. Thanks and looking forward to more of your videos.

It’s truly an amazing bridge to see trains on I love being there
