Remarks It was gold and orange at the front, and a blue green color at the train, with a brilliant electric blue at the tip of the train. It appeared very quickly and went by very quickly. I didn\'t see it pass the horizon line, as some trees blocked my final couple of seconds of view as I tried to follow it in the sky, but it was east of my location.
