Re: "Private train" on Sunday

The runbys were being planned by Olaf Rasmussen who intended to feature locations that haven't been done before. He also planned to turn the train at Lava and run facing westbound in the afternoon, lighting angles that are not normally done. Whether they had time to execute this plan will be known after the end of today's trip. I would have gone but prior family commitments ruled it out. I also missed the last runs of 611 for the same reason!
