I was amazed by what I saw tonight. Right after I saw it I parked my car and asked ChatGPT what I had just witnessed I explained everything to the AI chat. The chat sent me to your website to fill this out so here I am. That genuinely was one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.

There was an orangey glowing train that followed the green light. The glowing train did not linger at all. It followed the light and went out just as fast as the green light went by
