Microsoft is trying to keep up with Google, specifically Google Earth, in the aerial view department. They have one-upped them a bit by using photos taken from low flying planes, rather than satellite images. The result can be interesting and useful for viewing rail facilities.

When the page comes up, type "interbay, wa" in the "where" box. This will bring take you to BN's Interbay yard in Seattle.
Notice the "There is bird's eye imagery available" icon on the left. Click on it to see the images.

You can look at the yard from four different directions. There is a nice roundhouse at the north end.
