Back when SGLR's ROW was a lot more "unkempt" than it now is (they've cleared tons of shrubs, etc), this spot was considered "primo" was it was open on both sides. |

SGLR DeSoto Turn |
Description: |
1999 was the last time I got a morning southbound train here, if that gives you any idea how often it happens. With the highway and most of the clear view of the ROW on the east side, it's a photographer's dream come true. However, it's by default. Business is so down, they only run to interchange with CSXT once a week. |

Ah yes, this is the kind of shot SGLR was once "famous" for, but most of the ROW has been cleaned up in recent years. With the possibility of a new intermodal hub coming online very close by, there may be more improvements soon. |
