Lake Forest Railfanning

Lake Forest Railfanning

Recorded on 5/23/18

After filming in Rondout yesterday, A-Train4014 Productions
heads back to the CP C&M Subdivision at Lake Forest, Illinois
for more railfanning. Throughout the day, the action was solid.
There was at least one freight train getting squeezed in between
Inbound Metra and Outbound Metra trains. We were also testing
out one of our new camera accessories that we recently purchased:
Telephoto Lens. We did happen to sneak in a few video footages of
using the telephoto lens. It may not be used all the time, but at least
it will be with our equipment at all times just in case. Overall, another
solid day out trackside on the CP C&M Subdivision. Coming up is our
very first trip to the Illinois Railway Museum on Memorial Day! Stay tuned
next week to see how the IRM treated our crew on Memorial Day.
