Remarks & Notes

The first thunderstorm of spring hits Altoona, Wisconsin. Lightning flashes across the sky as a Union Pacific freight train is held back by the new CTC signal mast. CTC was installed during the yard upgrades this past year and is currently being added along the Altoona Sub.

Sparks fly over the railroads from celebration fireworks, maintenance and repair "sparks", locomotive exhaust fireworks, and nature's light show.

Lights In The Night (Or Sundown/Sunrise)! Railroads Seen In Another Perspective! Album created by member Dana M.	Album Views: 264,565
An ongoing/growing album of photos that IMHO reveal the awesome, but seldom seen beauty of railroads because most of us don't go out after sundown or before sunrise. From dusk to dawn, lights are on! (And I continue to find new "Lights In The Night"!)
