Remarks & Notes 
I haven't chase a train on the Lynndyl sub, for awhile like this one. With precision railroading the trains have just enough power theoretically. So every time there is any type of climb, they slow way down. So it's made photographing them easier. Not the case with this train today. This guy had three up front, and two DPU's. So he was doing maximum authorized speed, 70 miles an hour much of the way. The road along this route is highway. So about the max I could go is about 75. So it took me 30 mile to pass him and get ahead enough to set up for a shot. He also ran down the train in front of him, so I was able to catch another train, because of his pace.
