Remarks & Notes 
During the so-called Blizzard of '96 in New England, Amtrak 175 (westbound) scores a point for the "all-weather mode" as it crosses the Niantic River drawbridge (Nan). An offshore breeze is keeping the right-of-way relatively free of snow, and helpfully forms a cloud that isolates the F40 from the background. The 1907 drawbridge is undergoing replacement, with completion due in 2013.

See how two of the busiest routes on the Amtrak network have evolved since the railroad started in 1971.
