Nice! I keep trying to get up there myself, but have been too busy.

[sarcasm]You didn't get it with a train crossing US 60   [/sarcasm]

(Had the chance to do that myself once, but wandered too far away on the outer road and entirely missed the train)

I wish MoDOT would be willing to use that high of flyover eventually for the I-270/MO 364 interchange, instead of the spread out turbine design they've gone to (yes, I know about the cost issues).

I wondered how often that track is used.

Not often, to my knowledge

It's a good thing it isn't. Traffic backs up all the way to Battlefield on SB 65 due to the stopped cars on the ramp to 60.
