Metra 143 arriving at Arlington Heights

Metra F40PH-2 143 is shown blasting through some big snow drifts upon its arrival at Arlington Heights, Illinois. Unfortunately, I was set up a little too close to the tracks that had a lot of snow on them and 143 ends up snow plowing the tripod. I apologize for the shift in shot but thats what I get for being too close to the tracks. Filmed on February 2, 2011.

@CuseRecorder This winter sucked! I started train spotting last spring and was severely disappointed by the lack of snow this winter.

Awesome video. Lighting was perfect. It looked like Christmas. The train plowing through the snow piles. And finally the camera getting jostled by the wake of the train. Really great video.
