The Cape Region awoke last Sunday morning to its first snow of the 2018-19 winter season. The National Weather Service predicted wind gusts as high as 35 mph.
The video featured here was made by Lewes artist Abraxas. The train you will see is the regular coal train that runs through the center of Sussex County taking coal to NRG’s Indian River electricity generation station. Abraxas used a drone to film the train as it made its way in the snow through Lincoln, just south of Milford.
