What did the engineer tell you? Nice catch!!!

He told us to "get back". I was not aware that they were grinding the rails. The engineer told us that so that the sparks from the metal would not hit us.

Thanks for the complement too, I was not expecting this train, it was a surprise treat!

were they working on it? it was going on a pretty slow speed.

Notice the sparks on the rails as they go over them. They are grinding the tracks to keep them in shape.

I wrote about this in my description. =)
