| Remarks | I have seen countless shooting stars over the time of my life, so I am 100% sure that this was a Bollide. It was so bright that I could see it out of the corner of my eye while looking into a campfire. Now, days later I am still getting goosebumps thinking about it, because it was so stunning and unreal :) |

| Observation | Yes |

| Remarks | The train was almost as bright as the bollide and it got slightly slimmer over time if i remember correctly. In the end i saw the train as smoke before it turned completely dark again. |
| Terminal flash | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | I saw the bollide flash up much brighter than it already was before it disappeared. It was a very short but big flash, so bright that i could see the forest in the distance lit up for a short time. |
