Spectrum Is Red

Continuing with combining Railfanning and Astronomy, my friends and I headed to Durand, MI looking for an unobstructed view of the Aurora. We found a good spot on a gravel road not far from a grade crossing on the CN Flint sub. It didnt take long after sunset before the Aurora became visible. Behind us, an eastbound CN train activated the crossing, the flashers illuminating the foreground with red light.
