2472 SP Pacific @ Farwell bridge, 9/12/09

Mike K's last video of SP 2472 rolling past after crossing the Farwell bridge, Niles Canyon on 9/12/09.
Unthinking, uncaring "foamer", "gerf" (glassy eyed rail fan) jumps into the picture. A real railfan on the right side of track "admonishes" (yells at ) him for standing in front of another photographer. The "foamer" turns, looks right at Mike, and continues to stand right in front of him. And we wonder why "railfans" have such a bad reputation. Here is the example!!!!!. Mike moved to the right in order to try to save the shot for his memories. I'm sure he did'nt want pics of this selfish, ignorant person's back to remember this visit by. After the train passed by, the gentleman on the right side of the track and myself had a few "words of wisdom" for this jerk.
