Recordist's notes

Recording from Meramec Greenway beneath the BNSF railway bridge where it crosses the Meramec River. It is a Baltimore three span through truss bridge and was built in 1923. An estimated 30 trains cross it a day. A couple is heard overhead returning from a dangerous walk to its center pier.
