I finally got an awesome pass of a train of Starlink satellites.

801 PM MDT (UT-6) on 7 April 2021 or 201 UT on 8 April 2021.

Northwest to southeast pass, 85 degree elevation.  Sun only about
seven degrees below the horizon.  I found Regulus which they passed
close to and they were bright in 7x50 binoculars.

I looked visually and they were easy to see despite the sky not being
as dark as desired.

I continued watching until they entered Earths shadow.   If you have
similar passes in the coming days consider looking for them.
