Alan, I like your second shot through the windshield.

A little off subject but have you ever seen where truck drivers have to back into the dock at the other side of the Schwebel's plant ? Wow! I have been there when personnel have stopped traffic to get trucks in there.

Q016 is an eastbound train. I suspect the train you photographed was Q015-07.

That is a daily occurance, they use local police who don't have a clue about directing traffic sometimes at rush hour they
can have traffic backed up all over the place. I know every way to avoid it and still catch trains.
