Remarks & Notes

Contrary to popular opinion east Texas isn't flat. It undulates in big swells. Here the southbound Houston section of the "Texas Eagle" is accelerating out of one of the many dips. The train is long gone but the swells are not. Photo by Calvin Christman via Jim Satterwhite. From my collection. (Help preserve slide collections)
