CAPE CHARLES WAVE

March 15, 2013

Recent gale-force winds left their mark on the Bay Coast Railroad at Cape Charles Harbor: The shed covering the historic excursion car looks like it would have been flattened without support from the rail car.

Meanwhile, the float bridge, used to load cars on barges, partially broke lose from its supports and listed hard to port. Welders began repairs earlier this week.

Overseeing it all was an osprey, just returned to its established nesting spot on harbor pilings. The wind seems not to have disturbed the nest. (Wave photos)
