Comments on: Photographed on CRHA Niagara’s “Longest Day” event in 2016 (a 37 year tradition to go out rail-fanning on the Friday closest to the longest day of the year); we couldn’t help but admire the ingenuity of this railfan’s method of getting a more interesting photographic angle by using a powered parachute. Train itself was CN 2299 and 2512 followed by a long line of mostly autorack cars. http://www.railpictures.ca The BEST Canadian photos on the Internet, eh?

Lol. The powered parachute is not a bad idea. I'm sure if it is one of RP's members, it'll end up on here. If it is Mr. Mooney, then I will be laughing for days on end.
