That sunrise at Fort Madison was stunning! It was wonderful to see Big Boy at Santa Fe Junction and also to catch a glimpse of Arvada; I've missed it. That lovely fox in Cordele is getting all furry for winter, and it's always nice to see Pere Marquette. The Keewatins were very sharp; I haven't seen them before. Thank you very much for a great Grab Bag and best wishes to Joe Peach!

You don't need to get your eyes checked. There's some kind of issue with the clips, you can see if pause one there appears to be a 'ghost' image. Not sure what the cause is.
