A meet in the Valley - a photo on Flickriver

            With private car "Virginia City" on the rear, Amtrak 14 meets a westbound Southern Pacific train at Shedd, Oregon. The Coast Starlight is roaring along at 79 mph or so through the longest stretch of tangent railroad track in the state of Oregon. 

In the intervening years much has changed here, but one constant remains - the stench from the manure piles at the dairy farm in the distance.
