Kelly,

Great, great, great! The shot of Q271 looks like the opening of a commercial ("how tomorrow moves"!). That is a cool sunset through the trees, too. And I agree with you... I'm not a big e-bell fan. I know they require less maintenance, but a mechanical bell just somehow sounds more "authentic".

[jpaufsc]

What have you got against the E-bell?

[furryfurball1221]

I don't really like them. It's to uniform. the bell that used to be on the gates was loud and always offa beat.

Awesome! NS rules csx rules too! I know this is my first comment, but will you watch my videos?

[furryfurball1221]

lol it's always a waiting game.

He was waiting forever to leave the yard. I was too impatient to wait another two hours.

[furryfurball1221]

yep! prolly around 7.

[sasilv1129]

Did you film this yesterday evening? If so, that NS train was probably 15M.

[furryfurball1221]
