Revisiting favorite places #16: Anywhere the trains roll--- Just East of the Cascade Mountain Range, as the trees thin, and the temperatures rise, it's such a wonderful sight to see the incredibly long Burlington Northern Santa Fe trains snaking through multiple tunnels on the Washington side of the river. And if you look closely at the bottom of the picture, you'll see a Union Pacific container train on the Oregon side. An extra today is the barge being pushed Westbound in the middle of the river. Barge traffic is still important on the Columbia.

That is an incredibly long train - and a dramatic environment.
That is one lonely looking barge in a one humongous massive scene.
Always enjoy your photos from this area. I wouldn't miss them.
Gracias al tren y la barcaza nos podemos hacer idea de las dimensiones
Todo un ejemplo de comunicaciones en un idílico paraje.
Un abrazo.
Your photo is calm with all those great reflections in the water.
Such a pristine quality to this river.
Lovely view and it's picturesque.
That is a long train. Have seen long trains up north they go forever.
