Lake Forest Railfanning

Lake Forest Railfanning

Recorded on 4/14/17

A-Train4014 Productions heads to Lake Forest station with our closest friends, Casey Walker (Warbonnet 669 Productions) for some railfanning fun. It was pretty cold in the morning but at least the weather started to warm up a little bit. We caught a couple freight trains that included some unique power. For the first time in a while, we had hornshows that came from a freight train, Metra, and Amtrak. Possibly one of the busiest days of railfanning we’ve had in awhile. Overall, it was a successful and fun day as always with Casey.
