(meteorobs) Re: Big Leonid Train Lit Up
OK Dave, I'm trying to piece this together. There was a bright fireball
with a train. The train came and went and then reappeared. What did your
"re-lit" train look like? Large is a bit vague. Was it straight and
narrow like a fresh train or did it possess some other shape?
The 8 1/2 minutes George was referring to was the original train. I can
reassure you that neither one of us witnessed what you are describing.
