Reports Report 2402an (Event 2402-2016)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Alilly G |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Just that the train was extremely long and the sparks seemed to fly off the train very far. The train lasted almost the length of time it took for the ball to cross the sky (I saw it come up from behind the trees ahead of me, go across the sky above me, then go down behind the trees behind me-I was laying on the ground on my back looking up). |
