Very nice i have never saw this one, great fog shot and nice horn action from the best and favorite crew.

Yea I think they didn't see me until almost at the 2nd crossing! Thanks Jeff, this is one of my favorites!

I'll add this. I started watching Youtube earlier this summer when a co-worker who knew I loved trains showed me Q592 in LaGrange, GA after finding it by accident. There are very few railfans in Lineville, AL, but videos such as yours and photos posted on ALRAILS, a Yahoo group I joined, has really opened things up for me and helped me make a lot of new friends who share the same passion for trains.

I've met quite a few other people in Georgia, only 2 near me though...they all live a bit from here...

Great video! I only shoot stills, and I pretty much put the camera down after the light goes, but it's great to see what you and others do with live video. Great sound too. BTW, I'm about 90-100 miles west of Austell in East Central, AL. Can't wait to get back over there. I've only shot there once, but hope I can add another next spring or summer!

Thanks! I appreciate it very much! I do my best when it gets dark...

I accepted the invite. Appreciate it very much. Hope I set it up right. Sometimes new stuff throws me off, but unlike most 62 YO people, I love all these great toys we have. I have seen Guitars14's work. His is great too. Got a feeling he shares another interest. I'm not much at playing the guitar, but I love classic rock and pretty much anything good with the guitar. Wish I had local videos to post, but would be glad to share digital photos!

Thanks Bro! I was like wooooh when I watched the video for the first time after I filmed it! Yep the lights in the cars make it look really cool!

I am so digging these night shots!!! Love the way the windows in the cars light up at night!

Thanks Bro! My friend Max showed up right before Amtrak got here, that's who I was talking to...
