A view from the abandoned St. John Street railroad bridge. The overpass in the distance is still active and carries the Amtrak Downeaster and various freight trains.

The Track Stops Here

End of the Narrow Gauge Railroad tracks along the Eastern Promenade. Full-size trains used to cross this bridge back in the day on the way to points north. The swing bridge in the distance has been out of service since 1984 per this informative wikipedia page about the railroad history of Portland.
