The coal tower is illuminated by the headlight of an eastbound manifest with the first hint of sunrise in the background.

Thanks! You can park in the lot at Rotary Park; I stay back from the tracks as the road crews will call you in to the RR cops. The big problem lately is that UP leaves cars on the runaround track that block the view----
