Reply to "Midweek Photos 1/11/2017"

Hello all, glad to be back after  a rough December.  I still haven't been able to get out much, so

I found these in my files from last year. It is something I'd never seen before, a banner test.

I suppose the purpose of these tests is to see if the train tested is under the proper control.

Anyway, here are a few photos of a banner test at Hyndman last spring. This is an east bound

manifest at the main street crossing in Hyndman.

I'm editing this to add that all the below photos were made with the Nikon D7000 and the 

Nikon 18/105 lens.  A fine railfan machine.
