Where did you park to take these pictures? Airport fence and spur (or siding?)... :?: End of Kraft?

335 must have stopped in order for you to move to get the second shot. Did it stop before the siding?

JT, Jon was at the end of the road where Thornapple River drive used to cross the tracks, just west of the 36th st. bridge. I was up at the end of Kraft. I had to go into town anyways so I took 96 and beat it to the yard.

Sorry, Jon...I didn't realize you posted the second set of pics. But you already knew that per our phone discussion. :)
