In this image, a Connecticut Valley Service train crosses the Connecticut River over the Amtrak/Springfield Terminal Railroad Bridge. It spans the waterway between Enfield and Suffield, Conn., a few miles north of the Windsor Locks station. The current bridge was constructed in 1865-66 and rebuilt in 1903-1904. The train is led by an F40PH locomotive wearing the Phase III paint scheme introduced in 1979.
