Warning - Low Bridge 2
Posted by Daryl Johnson (Farnham, United Kingdom) on 27 January 2009 in Transportation.
I wanted to try to show you how close your head can get to the trains that pass over the bridge shown in yesterday's shot. I could have touched it. If you look at these two shots again, you can see that there's not much to prevent people getting onto the track if they so desire!
I thought about sitting under the bridge when a train passed over. But, I'm sorry to say, I chickened out.
Although I'm now in England, this blog will still feature photos from Japan for the foreseeable future.
I apologise in advance if I'm tardy with commenting on your blogs or returning comments during the week... I will get to you though!

I think I would rather be in the tunnel rather than so close to the side of the train

The trains around here are so loud that it is very intimidating to get close. I've stood by the tracks to take a photo feeling like I want to flee.

@Twelvebit: It's a primal (and healthy!) urge isn't it?
