Final catch of the day, and another crossing in the main part of Odessa I've managed to film in action. After catching MKCVN at Woods Chapel Rd, I hopped back onto I-70 and headed east to Odessa to catch the train again. I decided to film over at 2nd St since it was another crossing in Odessa I have yet to film. Train arrived at around 1:20. The crossings the train was blowing for at the beginning were 5th and Dryden St, and Mason St which I have already filmed. This crossing is another mid 2000's KCS install. You can see a Dwarf Signal to the right by the sidewalk. The wind was a bit of a nuisance, but wasn't as bad as last weekend especially since I have a more heavier tripod and the new Canon Powershot SX740 HS to go along with it. I'm still trying to get used to the new camera since it's a completely different beast than my old Samsung HMX F-90. This road is also known as MO Route 131 since the highway runs through Odessa. You can kinda see I-70 in the distance.
