You can cook a giant woodfired pizza there.

That rail trestle fire happened about three years ago in the next county over from me. Unknown fire origin (there were suspicions, but nothing conclusive). I know some of the fire fighters that were on scene when the collapse happened. That severed the rail connection between three small towns, one with a major industry tied to the oil field, and the main AT&SF rail line. The rail spur is privately owned. It took them a little over a year to rebuild the trestle.

Considering I see fences and gates on the ground I am wondering why they would have needed to build a trestle instead of leaving the tracks on the ground?

Me too!

I thought this was a thread about a new size pizza.

Most pizza places have small, medium and large.

We have a Pizzeria here that has X-Small 8", Small 10", Medium 12", Large 14", X-Large 16", and Super 20".

Then they also have a 24" and a 30".

The toppings for the 24" and 30" range from $2.50 to $4 per topping.

Those are gigantic pizzas. You can feed an army with a 30". That's more than twice the size of most Pizzeria's average large pizzas.

Trains can't change elevation that quickly, so if there is a ridge line, the adjustment must be made miles in advance or S-curves to make it up a hill/mountain.

Figured it had to be something of that nature but the gif doesn't give you that perspective.

The Colorado River (the one in central Texas, not Arizona) is just out of sight from where the camera was aimed.
