Thanks!
Today's GE diesel is none other than 4141, lead engine on GH Bush funeral train.
On the way to College Station, same route.

Wow, how did you stay with it for so long at the start? (looked like miles) Was that you in the back of the pick-up truck?

I was on the bridge the road is on.
I have no idea, just luck with the distance - just under 4,000 feet.
No WiFi for one
But I do use 5.8Ghz and the track curved to the right.

Great job, Looked like a close call with some of the wire stretched across the track.

Thanks for sharing.

I see the ones you speak of but those were well away.
Not like the ones I flew through in the Eagle Lake video.
From my vantage point, it looked like I was going to go over them.
