| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | David W |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Judging by the speed, angle of incidence, length of train and unwavering brightness I expect it to have made an impact north west of me. It appeared so close that I rolled down my car window to listen for any sonic boom, but heard none. |
