The Bellevue humpbacks
You gotta love the FW&D who minimized the cuts and fills between, of course, Fort Worth and Denver, and generally just built the railroad to the contour of the land. Here, the engineer on BNSF's ZLACALT1-29A guides his 5,400 tons & 6,800 feet up and over each hump in the track profile just east of Bellevue, TX (water tower in back left side) on the Wichita Falls Sub.
