Re: Where Is It?
Yes, now I remember, Amtrak depot in Shelby, MT., Toole County. Its serve by the Amtrak train no.7/27 the Empire Builder westbound from Chicago to Seattle/Portland and train no.8/28 the Empire Builder eastbound from Seattle/Portland to Chicago. The shot above is looking west and the bridge in the background is the Oilfield Avenue aka BL I-15 bridge.Michael wrote: ↑Wed Sep 23, 2020 5:40 pmThe AMTRAK station in Shelby, MT.
