This video was originally posted on YouTube (by myself, of course). Here is the text provided from that site:
Leading is P42 #83. I wish I had stuck with my gut and pulled into the left lane on Post Oak. Instead, I was in the right lane and saw the headlights, forcing me to race down Alt. 90 to the next crossing in hopes of getting a few seconds to set up. Presented is the fews seconds of set-up I had in the van along with the train (albeit I hit the stop button a bit early). Also, on top of the sound being out of sync, I couldn't catch the trailing P42 unit number. This is train #1 from NOL to LAX.
