Sunset, Lightning, Road Slug

Unread post by BB »

The storm light this evening (5/06/06) made me go out because it looked so nice. To the south there were lightning bolts in the sky and to the west was a nice sunset. Then 8pm the train was leaving the yard with CSX 6482 and 2265 for Walhalla.

The sunset on the lake picture was my favorite. It reminds me of the sunsets I see from the cabin over Lake Michigan near Manistee. Favorite train shot was the picture of the train passing through the East Lake marsh crossing. Good shots!
