The Electric Corridor
There is a photo that gets circulated around a lot on social media of a highway offramp area in Pennsylvania that is treated as a disparaging view of &quot;car centric America.&quot; I could make the argument though of course with the right zoom lens though, a rail transit corridor surrounded by walking paths and planter boxes can certainly feel like the same type of oppressive visual clutter. The giant Wendy's sign certainly still matches the mood at least.

But its also part of why the S-Line always draws me back to photograph it again and again, despite the repeating nature of the rolling stock and the highly predictable timetable. Its that wild vision of a walkable America in one of Salt Lake's nicer neighborhoods, that you can visit and see today. Despite the fences and catenary poles, at least the sidewalk dares me to walk alongside the tracks with the trains, seeing where new or obscure camera views might open up. Now all we need is to bribe somebody to run a small steam engine up here to really recapture the line's days as the Rio Grande Park City branch, someday...
