Guiding Lights
With light falling fast, NS 14Z came hurtling north through Lynnwood and reached us at the N&W signals at Lewis Run, Virginia. These aging US&S signals were ones I had previously thought had come down, but it turned out that CP Lynnwood, the south end of this siding, were the signals that had fallen instead. Save for the addition of the PTC antenna, little at Lewis Run had changed since my visit the year prior. Still, these signals have little time left as replacements strike down more and more of the N&W veterans.
Later this same night, after the remnants of the falling suns light had dissipated, we set up for star trails here. It was a long, long night at these signals to say the least!
...and that also caps off 2023. Quite the year, suffice to say. Fewer photos this year, but big things in the personal life. Pretty wild year. I wonder what's in store for next year... who knows!
