Here is a photo I saw on Flickr of No. 1 Walter E. Disney crossing the swing bridge. Pretty cool photo!

Nice shot. Reminds me of the night I had to open and close that stinking bridge.

I have heard stories of how much fun that is. Can't remember if I heard it from you or someone else. But from what I have heard, I believe it.

Great picture. I never seem to time my ride on the boat to catch a train crossing the bridge! :(

Maybe sometime we could take over the boat and have them hold there until the train passes by! We could call it "Occupy Liberty Belle". 8)

Nice shot! I could have gotten a similar photo when I was at the Magic Kingdom and riding the Liberty Belle this past October. Unfortunately, I couldn't dig my camera out of my camera bag fast enough. :(

Oh well, that's just the way it goes when you're a shutterbug. There's always that one shot that got away.

For just that reason, when I am there I almost always keep my camera around my neck and in standby mode, just in case. Of course, I still end up missing shots. :roll:
