Columbia River Bridge

Description

A swing span draw bridge connects railroads between Vancouver, WA and Portland, OR. This bridge is only a few dozen meters south of the Vacouver, WA Amtrak station. it sees dozens of freight and passenger trains every day as well as many tugboat/barge movements sailing between Portland, Willamette River, and  Lower Columbia River ports and ports further up the Columbia River. The Willamette River at Portland is pretty much the upriver limit for oceangoing ships since this bridge lacks the kind of clearance for a large modern ship to pass.
It would have been nice to get a cleaner shot of the bridge, but access points are limited. This is, after all, a busy, riverside industrial district.
