The moderate to heavy rain ease for just a brief moment as CSX K443-21 (Chicago,IL/CP-Lawrenceville,GA), but the wet rails give the crew a fit as they drag 13,045 tons of steel, and ethanol over the crest of Raccoon Mountain grade on the main 1 track (MP J-139.0 Whiteside). This is typical winter, and early spring weather in Southeast Tennessee, and believe it or not, if you combine the rain fall amount from January and to this point, we've had more rain in the matter of two months, than a average rain fall amount than the city of Seattle. Good for shooting images of train, but it get tired after awhile.
For the train and storm chaser. Trains with thunderstorms, dark clouds, rain, lightning, hurricanes - tropical storms, funnel clouds, storm light, rainbows, and snow storms.
