We’d finished our meal at the Tamaqua Station Restaurant.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’d been watching the signals for a southward train and saw that the previously all red lights had cleared to ‘approach’ (yellow-over-red-over-red).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kris ordered a fancy dessert from the dessert cart, and then we heard the whistle . . . the second in less than an hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wandered down toward the old tower just in time to catch a pair of Reading & Northern SD38s with a short freight.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Exposed with my Nikon Z7-II with 24-70mm lens set at 27mm (to include the signals).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
