FEC Train Pace 5 Mar 2011

Sent out the Russian Judge to pace this one today. Zipping along and some slow traffic did dictate the shots today many times. Have to say that cab looks cool with that smoked glass. There is a nice look for you toward the end of the Blue Beast helping 105 today.

Great video, Dave. David Shelley was the engineer, surprised neither he nor mark noticed you fighting traffic for that shot, LOL. Nice notch-down too.

@brickbuilder711Maybe they did, and were trying to out run the pace. Had to pass one Jimmy who was doing 38 as it got going, then two cars going slower nearly canceled the fun. Glad when they were out of the way. I don't know, pacing the load isn't all that bad, like when next to the loads of rock, but I love the power shots most of all.

Actually Dave I just take photographs of the trains that come through. You can look on RR pictures archives.net for the photos.

@jacobstrains interesting, going to go look to see if you posted it. Told Doug last year I hope someday we can each get a given train on it's way along the line all the same day/run.

Good catch. I caught this train in Stuart too.
