Passenger Trains > Two of those "Don't Blink, you'll miss them" moments in MichiganDate: 09/20/16 20:34 Two of those "Don't Blink, you'll miss them" moments in Michigan Author: Ron Two of those "Don't Blink, you'll miss them" moments in West Michigan.
Amtrak #364 AMTK 127 AMTK 32, Tuesday, September 20, 2016, at about 7:00 PM. Amtrak #358 AMTK 33, Tuesday, September 20, 2016, at about 7:40 PM. It's funny how the sky and lighting can change so much in 40 minutes. In the second part, I do not know where all of that smoke was coming from. We went looking but there aren't any houses in the immediate area. And there was almost no wind either. I guess it drifted in from about a mile away. Any ideas about how fast these two were travelling? Ron You must be a registered subscriber to watch videos. Join Today!

I did some quick timing on these videos and get anywhere between about 95 and 115 MPH, which seems reasonable. Date: 09/21/16 09:29 Re: Two of those "Don't Blink, you'll miss them" moments in Michi Author: Ron The first photograph - Amtrak #364 on Tuesday, September 20, 2016.
