Q132 and the "Trainco" truck!

Unread post by MDH »

Just before lunch today I noted Q132 was heading up the Toledo branch just South of town so I went out to intercept and got him rolling up at Oregon Rd. (where he was coming to a stop):

After a short stop, they'd just started moving again and blew for the crossing. The lights just came on as a big Semi was approaching the crossing. In that split second of driver decision he chose to "gun it" and charge over the crossing. I think the gate just barely missed hitting the trailer and I got this "grab shot" of him makin' the run for it:

And it was a local truck driving school truck! Go figure...

After getting the at the grade crossing shot I'd originally set up for I moved over to Tracy Rd and got him again:

After that, I went around and caught him at Oregon rd also after the crew change at Stanley.
