"In American railroading, a frog war occurs when a private railroad company attempts to cross the tracks of another ... It is named after the frog, the piece of track that allows the two tracks to join or cross ..." [from Wikipedia] In the 1890s Richland was at the crossroads where one set of tracks went to Cape May and another wanted to go into Atlantic City.. This led to the Richland Frog War. It was resolved without blood shed with an overpass built for the Atlantic City line. The Atlantic City line was later turned into the first electrified rail line in the U.S. The photo is taken at approximately the place of the Frog War.

@terek55 Thank you Terry, I agree you can do do much with the tracks @webfoot Thank you Paul, the curve was at the right place :) @kerristephens Thank you Kerri, I have taken several photos here this is the best @kimmistephens Thank you Kimmi, yours is great message today
@pwallis Thank you Paula, it is interesting learning all the quirks of your own town @pamfromcalgary Thank you Pam, tracks give such neat lines @5unflow3r Thank you Trina, I have taken photos here before, but never this good, you 365ers are making me better :)
@orangecrush Thank you Jerry, this was one of the places on my list :) @seattle Thank you Constance, when I originally took the photo I didn't see them; it turned out to be friends of ours out for a family 5 mile stroll :)
I like the curve of the line here and by the way, I love your lack of bokeh :) I did not like the tone of that conversation, but remember I got your back and fully support that definitions can change.
@scooter Thank you Scooter, I liked the way the tracks curved @laurentye Thank you Lauren, railroad tracks allow you to compose easily @myhrhelper Thank you Kathy, the curve really helped me @triplescoop Thank you Andrea, I appreciate your commenting @brumbe Thank you Paula, definitions change all the time, I see that a lot in Computer Science - thank you for your support.
