July 9, 1999

George Szabo and I went up to Plainview this evening to see if any night traffic was rolling. Of course on our way up we spotted Amtrak coming through, but it was long gone by the time we reached Plainview. After about an hour wait finally a coal train came through.

Suddenly the signal lit up telling us a train was on its way through. (Click on picture for a larger view).

The flashing ditch lights cause an interesting pattern. (Click on picture for a larger view).
