Just looking through old photos & remembering when I was out shooting in western PA with my wife. Finished for the day & was leaving town when a torrential downpour started. Turned onto a narrow residential street lined with homes and parked cars and barely made out an odd, single headlight higher than any car approaching us. Squeezed into a parking spot just in time to miss being plastered by a train. The tracks ran right down the middle of the street and the warning signs were out. Good times

Holy crap! 😳😖 That would be terrifying. Pittsburgh has some of the weirdest intersections and street configurations I’ve ever seen. My childhood was terrifying in a car.
