Just that it was beautiful. I live in the westside of LA, which is a very vibrant urban metropolis but I have seen many amazing meteors in my time there. Especially when looking westward towards the ocean. I even saw a very strange one that I reported both here as well as to MUFON. Thank you for your time.

Small pieces of fire bits came off in the train. It was beautiful and reminded me of magnesium burning.
