Lake Forest Railfanning

Lake Forest Railfanning

Recorded on 9/9/17

Andrew Mangalindan and Casey Walker represented A-Train4014 Productions this weekend as they went trackside for some railfanning at Lake Forest, IL on the CP C&M Sub. The action started off slow. However, the action picked up by the afternoon. By the afternoon, we ran into some difficulty of backlighting so we apologize for the backlit shots in our video. Due to the circumstances, we didn’t want our crew to be in jeopardy of any possible injuries so we weren’t unable to avoid the backlit. On the other hand, we saw our friend, Rob Dargan working on Train 2610 and 2613 so we stuck around until he came back later in the day. Overall, it was a great day at Lake Forest. Stay tuned for our trip to the Illinois Railway Museum: The Showcase and our Railfanning Birthday Bash for our very own, Andrew Mangalindan who turns 21 years old on Tuesday, September 26.
