@dwkcamman611 Thank you. I shot this stuff when I was 16 years old.

As requested Joel, scenes in order are: Summit Road east of Batavia, Sardinia, unknown, Lawshe (where I met up with you, Greg Scholl on right shooting video), Arion (the most I ever saw 611 smoke it up), McDermott, Youngs (you can hear my Nikon FM2 motor drive), Rarden, Winchester, Williamsburg, Batavia off Rt 32 and you can see my arm on the left, Cincinnati Union Terminal and Brown, Ky. south of Lexington. Oh gosh, that's me talking at the end goofing around.

Excellent

[gaycowboy31]

my comment of the signals got cut off I know they are N&W PLs but they look simular to the B&O ones from that nightangle

[gaycowboy31]

those look more like B&O CPLs at 10:20 than N&W PLs

[gaycowboy31]

I have one of those N&W signals out here in my signal collection
