not very good at 885 the parking lot is to dark with all those tree behind it
the Station is ok, but the best light is on Theodor street and what helped there was soccer practice was still going on but after 730pm way to dark even there.

Yes it was a nice evening to watch trains. Did not know you were coming to town Mattsquatch There was a family watching train. the little boy was excited to see a train. so I guess we have our next generation of rail fans
