Eight Street, Vancouver

The hot corner of Vancouver, Washington. Yes, a baseball analogy, and I know that baseball field wise, the Fallbridge Sub would actually more resemble the first baseline. But no analogy is perfect, if it were, it would be an equivalence and not an analogy. Okay, so how about a theatrical analogy; backstage, and the footlights are located inside the wye at Vancouver Center.  Anyway, its rare to drive out Hwy 14 and not see a train somewhere on the long fill that keeps the railroad above the floodplain of the Columbia, and past the site of Ft. Vancouver. The crossovers at Eavan get a real workout as trains are shuffled to facilitate trains either crossing the river, or heading up the old NP.
