I like this one the best:



Have you had the chance to photograph a train on the גשר המיתרים (Bridge of Strings) curved cable stay bridge?

I took photos of the trains on Gesher HaMeitarim, but they might not be on my website right now. I can certainly email them to you if you are interested. Unfortunately, there seem to be few good vantage points for photos as the train crosses the bridge, and at one end, the afternoon sun is often in the background of the photos.

How refreshing and sensible to see single suspension wire for a light rail application, as opposed to heavy rail catenary.

HBLR has segments like that, especially where they have street running. If you think it saves money, think again.

I don't. Slow French light rail cars, which also run in Dublin. Can't drive down certain segments of Abbey Street anymore thanks to these things, which ought to have been put underground. At least Jerusalem was smart enough to buy them with the couplers; not so the "Railway Procurement Agency", who bought them only with the emergency couplers for towing dead cars.

Thanks. They look good at some angles, despite being bulked up a bit more than their European counterparts of the same model.

Post them at your convenience and them share with all.

Unfortunately, there seem to be few good vantage points for photos as the train crosses the bridge, and at one end, the afternoon sun is often in the background of the photos.

There is the option of getting out there at the butt crack dawn.

Thanks for these photos. Wish NYC had the political will to build something like this and get those damn buses off the streets.
