The singularly thing that stood out to me was it's angle of approach. It didn't seem too high up or to be moving vertically, though I know it had to have been. I thought it move in a SSW direction. I remember that some have a greenish tinted trail and looked for that but I only saw yellow. It made my day!

Remarks
It reminded me of a fireworks rocket trail, in yellow. The meteor/fireball continued until out of sight at the horizon, the trail continued until the same.
