[QUOTE="Sandpatch, post: 779761, member: 10543"] Amtrak's northbound Silver Star (now combined with the Silver Meteor) is running 8-1/2 hours late today. I caught up with it at Lugoff, SC at the only spot I could think of where trees wouldn't block a view of the entire train. Before the trains were combined a few months ago, the Star had one locomotive and a short train. The new "Super Star" as fans nicknamed it, is an impressive sight. I welcomed the cloudy overcast, as without it, I'd have been shooting toward the sun and couldn't have got this picture.:) By the way, the milepost references the distance from Richmond, VA, once the northernmost terminal on the Seaboard railroad.
