Amtrak's 792 under the Busch Gardens Monorail Bridge         
This bridge over the former Southern Pacific Coast Line in Van Nuys is the last vestige of the once thriving and popular Bush Gardens Amusement park. The bridge was both a walkway and a monorail span, and is just west of CP Raymer. From studying old images, it appears that the monorail hung off the outside of the bridge (on either side). The theme park itself was about cut in half by the tracks, with lakes and islands and rides where today there are parking lots for semis.
