| Remarks | A glowing train getting brighter and bigger, it was really small and fast white ball, but noticeable, then got larger and deeper in colour I swear it was orange as I thought of fire when I saw it, but almost mixed with the colour white as it gained in brightness and size |
| Terminal flash | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | Like embers from a dying sparkler just popped in literally a second and disappeared behind the house like a small ball of sparks each one becoming dark. It wasn’t large or dramatic, very quick but was very bright for a split second prior to fading too. |
