A P&W train whizzes past the 11th street crossing

I was running late this morning, so I ended up having to take the #70 bus down to Milwaukie and Powell so I could transfer onto a #9 or #17 to get across the bridge into downtown. As I got off the bus, I heard a fast-approaching train blatting its horn for a nearby crossing. Fortunately for me, my Pentax was in its regular post tucked cozily into my purse, so I managed to pull it out in time to see a P&W train zip over the 11th St crossing on its way down to Brooklyn Yard and points south.
