Wouldn't you know it, on a night I thought I wouldn't have anything to post, I ran across this video by Barnes Realty. It starts out near Fortescue and travels west over the highway at first, then the highway and railroad (when they are together), then when the highway veers off to the south, the video stays on the railroad, then they come together again. (And for those who don't know, where the video begins is approximately 4-5 miles straight south of us.)
Particularly note the damage that is shown between 1:25 and 1:30. Truly amazing.
One thing people often don't realize if they aren't familiar with this area is that this video is of the WIDTH of the river, like from side to side, not upstream or downstream. The river flows (basically) from the north, to the south. This video was shot starting at the east, traveling west.
We're talking an amazing swath of destruction, and not just for the highway and railroad....
