| Remarks | A glowing train, wider with the core object and thinning from the ascent. It became fairly close to the ground and I believe it disintegrated just prior to impact. I was fairly close to this event and checked the grounds within reason of the trajectory and finding nothing - all the while listening carefully for any impact sound (none heard). |

|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | A sudden bright light came up to me from behind my point of view for which I turned around to see the fireball and tail. Oddly though, there was no boom or sound until after the event. |
