*Please Comment* 12-5-09 My last weekend in Kirkwood before my Final Exams

Well this is my last Saturday in Kirkwood because I have my Final Exams on December 16th, 17th, and 18th then after that is my Christmas Break. Im studying my American Legal Systems cause thats one of my hardest classes of all and I have a B in that class but still studying for that class and all my other classes. Im just ready to get them done and over with. Im heading down to Shreveport, Louisiana on Christmas Break to visit my family. I plan on doing some railfanning in the Shreveport area and I know a couple of hot spots to record trains at. But I will be filming some NS trains in Shiloh before I head to Shreveport.

If you're going to Shreveport, be sure to get a train going across that rusty bridge in the downtown area.

[kfangz]

which one? There's two of them that crosses the Red River

[yodonvito4]

The one closest to Downtown. It's rusted on the Shreveport side, but silver on the Bossier City side.
