"When you think things are bad,
when you feel sour and blue,
when you start to get mad...
you should do what I do!
Just tell yourself, Duckie,
you're really quite lucky!
Some people are much more...
oh, ever so much more...
oh, muchly much-much more
unlucky than you!"
— Dr. Seuss (Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?)

I think waiting for a train on 3 consecutive days in a row was a new record for me. But, each day provided a new comp and each day it was worth the wait.
A shot of what is known as " The Splash " where the river Mole crosses River Lane in Fetcham and as you can see the river is running high at present .
A quote about the Splash from the Fracis Frith webpage --
"I remember the rickety bridge over the River Mole here, when I was very small my mother used to take me over it to eat sandwiches by the 'splash' and go for a paddle. The bridge was really scary with wobbly planks and I was afraid of falling through where the missing one was. When I was old enough to go on my own I learned to swim in the river, hanging on to the water weeds and kicking my feet until I was confident enough to let go and 'doggie paddle'. I am not sure why that part on the river is called the 'splash'. Some say it is because it was once a ford and the horses splashed across, and others say it is because a bomb dropped in the river which made a big splash. The water is deep over the bomb crater which is still there. Last summer I was 60 and swam over the bomb crater and it was still out of my depth so I don't know how deep it is. I got some strange looks but couldn't resist it. Someone threw a ball for a dog which landed nearby and the dog seemed to think I was competing in a race for its ball! The rickety bridge has been replaced by one that I think was carefully chosen to resemble the old one, but there are no wobbly or missing boards. "
He’s so much happier now. I spent a magical weekend with him, brainstorming about philanthropy.
It was off the record, to allow for unfettered speech, so I can’t dive into details, but I can share my overall impression: he is incredibly well read, his fanatic intensity has diffused out to a wide circle of empathy and scope of influence, and he happily dives deep into random topics we raised — from astrobiology to atheism to Africa.
And then we went to see Waiting for Superman.

"So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from Hell,
Blue skys from pain.
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
And did they get you to trade
Your heros for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
And did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here.
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl,
Year after year,
Running over the same old ground.
What have we found?
The same old fears.
Wish you were here."

It's crazy to think it has been just over four years since the last train rolled across this bridge in February of 2018. Even then, the bridge was in a sorry state with its copper wiring stolen, which is what rendered it inoperable in the first place, and the bridge taking several hours to limp into position. This bridge, once a testament of Milwaukee Road engineering, will never be closed for rail traffic ever again.
Bridge Z-6 was built in 1899 by the American Bridge Works and designed by Onward Bates, the Superintendent of Bridges and Buildings for the Milwaukee Road at the time. The bridge's unique bobtail design was the answer to the geographical constraints of building a swing bridge with a 100-foot clearance on a bend on the North Branch.
For over a century, this bridge was the gateway to the industrial wastelands of Goose Island and Kingsbury Street, and Milwaukee Road operated an extensive switching operation based at Division Street Yard. After several decades of deindustrialization, hungry land developers, local aldermen, and residents successfully ran out the last remaining businesses east of the river. The Chicago Terminal attempted a car storage operation on the island in 2017 which proved to be short-lived. By February of 2018 when the last train rolled across Z-6, Sterling Bay, the developer that acquired the adjacent Finkl property, had ran the railroad off the island.
In this view, we are looking southeast past the decrepit bridge shanty towards downtown Chicago. The North Branch is on the right and the empty Finkl property on the left. In the distance on the left is the shuttered General Iron scrap yard which was successfully run out by the city earlier last year.
Be sure to check out my photo album from Bridge Z-6.
