This is what happens when you don't look at the map!  Yes, there was an
S-curve between Morse and McKinley Park Trestle.  But I think the other half
of my statement is correct...it looks toward Bon Air Siding area.  The
photos I need are at the library.

I'm still about half awake...Janis and I returned late Thursday from 10 days
in Singapore and we are still having trouble with the 12-hour time
difference!

Ed!       Morse steps are north of McKinley trestle  --  Bon Air is well
south.       But Morse area fits a little except that the curve comes
back to the left again  (modestly)  before it crosses McKinley Park Trestle.
