Light with a trail over riverside

The object in question was a blue light. At first, I believed this to be a star, but when I noticed a trail behind it, I knew it was something else. Especially at the height that it was, with two planes under it for reference, I knew that it had to be much higher.

Another thing was that for the height that it was, it seemed to be flying pretty fast. Almost seemed to be outpacing the passenger plane under it.

The point is, I saw this light, it had a trail behind it that crossed once, like a jet propelled aircraft, it was way too high and fast for it to be a regular passenger plane, and I cant find any information about it on the internet. I don't think it was a jet either.
