Blue Light Special in Dyer
Sunset is coming sooner now since we're in August and the blue light makes its appearance earlier. It had just turned 800pm and we were about to call it a night. It had been a nice evening with a cool breeze, enjoyed by about four or five of us at the depot in Dyer. I got up to leave and took one last glance down the tracks, having left my scanner in the car. (I know, I'm lazy.) Surprised by a headlight, we grabbed our cameras and got ready for whatever was coming south. Turned out to be K500, an ore train off the BNSF and headed to Reynolds. Leading it was one of those sharp CITX lessors, CREX 1205. That blue and gold striped nose looked good in the blue light. A nice way to end a nice night.
