Summary

[edit]
Description

It took me a few seconds when this came off the scanner to realize Roger Puta was shooting the catenary. And what a better place to do it -- straight -- level -- perfect lighting -- interesting but not distracting background. The catenary in the photo was pulled very tight so it is difficult to see the bow. Roger was near MP 82 on the Amtrak Baltimore Division, about 2 miles south of Gunpow in December 1980.

If you have never looked the word catenary, try this: Catenary.
