Where MoPac crosses over Lady Bird

The Missouri-Pacific Railroad runs through Austin, which we call MoPac for short.  It meanders through town and crosses over Lady Bird Lake in the downtown area.  Here it is on a weekend morning while the sun is rising behind me, casting a nice glow on the railroad.  Out of frame to the right, where the railroad touches land again, is a little campsite where some of our homeless folks live.  I was walking around with camera in hand, and came across the site.  It was kind of weird. I wonder if they were hitching a ride on the train, saw Austin and said "this place is cool, maybe I will stay".
