The Second train is the H-DENBEL,

And holy shit!, If that coal trian was 50ft. farther back, That was the perfect recipe for disaster!

Cool! On Nat. Train Day, I saw a pretty short NS trains, but that's it. I have a lakehouse and the tracks cross the lake a couple miles away so I wait for trains there. I have spent sooooo much time waiting for them, but have only seen three trains in the 4 or 5 years we've had the place.
