Southbound Amtrak after dark

This is a video I took Saturday night, November 11 from Richmond Beach Park in Shoreline WA. (for reasons I do not know, the gate is left open after dusk despite the sign that says otherwise, but I digress.) Estimated time of night was between 9:30 pm and 10pm. I've been trying to get a night shot of a passing Amtrak for a few weeks, and finally got one. Of note, was the fact that there was a minus tide at the time, which was the first time I've been to one after dark. With regards to the location, I was at the north end of the beach, next to the signal light. You might be able to see the light in the video. My video camera, I've concluded, is not the greatest when it comes to after-dark videos. Anyway. Enjoy the video. P.S. I think the train in question was either the Cascadian, or the Empire Builder.

Update: Looks like the park staff is closing the gates again.
