Recorded on 8/1/17
A-Train4014 Productions returns to the BNSF Racetrack with our friend, Alex Ertmann. It’s been way too long since we’ve been out on the BNSF Aurora Sub so this was the perfect time to do it. Instead of taking the time to drive to the BNSF Aurora Sub, we decided to take the train instead. We took the very first inbound train to Chicago on the North Central Service and then took an additional train to the BNSF Racetrack. Instead of going to Hinsdale, we went to LaGrange station. However, due to an accidental incident at Chicago Union Station, our video footage may be a bit slanted or crooked as the tripod mount has broke and resulted it to be out of shape. But the show must go on. With a simple pair of pliers and duct tape, we were good to go. Once we got our camera equipment set up, the action was ready. We caught many BNSF freight trains as well as the occasional Amtrak Carl Sandburg train and the many inbound and outbound Metra trains. Overall, it was a great trip out to the Racetrack. A big shoutout and thanks to Alex Ertmann for inviting us and making this trip possible. We will definitely head back to the BNSF Aurora Sub very soon!
