New Progressive Rail pictures and videos I shot today.
Most of the footage was shot adjacent to the Zigler CAT dealership which you can see quite a bit in the background.
The video files are a bit large, but they are lengthy clips and worth the download IMO. You'll have to suffer a little download pain if you want to watch the videos.
