Remarks & Notes

It is 1050 on January 20th, 2018 and the sun has yet to clear the Chugach and Kenai Mountains but is promising to do so in the very near future. As I hear the southbound freight approaching my location, I have staked out the bridge over the 20 Mile River, I contemplate if in the 4 minutes it will take the train to arrive if the sun will also arrive. At 1054 I receive my answer, not quite, but an interesting scene none the less. In another 30 minutes or so this train will arrive at the Port of Whittier and start the task of loading the barge for Seattle.
