I played around with different ISO settings and settled on the 1600.
As for timings, I started off at 28secs and worked down to 18-19 gave the good amount without causing too much star trail. The first pic above is 28sec. There is a coal mine behind the tree lines below the pic so the light towers put a little light up, but where I setup was the darkest spot I could find along the road that the mine didn't interfere with the shot.
The photos above are just RAW with no editing done as yet. Heck I still use paint to edit photos for my business website lol.
