Recordist's notes

Recording made next to the Staples Subdivision rail road tracks in Ramsey, Minnesota. One train goes by during the recording. It was a rainy March day and the recorder was being sheltered by a cardboard box so the sound of the rain on the box can be heard aas well as drops falling on the windscreen. This location is adjacent to a garbage truck depot as well as a gravel pit so noises from that can also be hear. Nearby Highway 10 traffic can be heard as well. This was recorded with a Zoom H5
