I remember wondering this too when i had this picture in my screen saver. My guess would be, do to the width of the angle in this picture, that it's two seperate pictures that were placed together in panorama really well....that would be the only explanation, there was no way they were running that close together.

Yeah... Probably. Because wouldn't they crash when the first one would go into the brake run?

Well they did a petty darn good job in Photo Shop. It would be kinda dangerous if it was really that close.

It's either double exposure or a pieced together panorama. It's not possible to actually have that happen. Both trains would have to be on the lift at the same time and that would burn up the lift motor almost instantly when the second train engauges.
