RTM SHORT: CSX Royal Blue at Green Spring - Tie Train Set Out
Просмотров 4614 года назад
In October of 2013, we visited Green Spring, WV on the CSX Cumberland Subdivision, east of Cumberland MD. Green Spring, WV sits along the North Branch of the Potomac River and has been an interesting railroad scene since the B&O Railroad forged westward in the 1800’s. Of particular interest to me at the time of the visit was the B&O Color Position Light (CPL) signals still standing sentinel at ...
BNSF Transcon KC West - Fly over States
Просмотров 6044 года назад
In 2017, my good friend Sam and myself set out to document the BNSF Transcon west of Kansas City. We covered the Emporia, Ark City, and La Junta subs. This can be considered the heart of the old Santa Fe, especially around the La Junta Sub which has a lot of remaining Santa Fe objects. Anyway, I thought this song by Jason Aldean is a perfect nod to this adventure... Mile long Santa Fe trains, w...

CONRAIL Memories - Helpers at Alto
Просмотров 6 тыс.8 лет назад
One of my fondest memories of CONRAIL occurred when I was in early high school visiting Altoona, PA in 1997. As a young rail videographer fascinated with documenting my favorite railroad, I struck gold. A west bound steel slab train thundered through Alto on Track 3 with its rear-end stopping right in front of me. I had a front row seat viewing of one of the most awesome displays of high-horsep...

    Great video! Capturing good night footage in the shipping canal is a challenge. (It's gotten worse this year as they replaced the bridge lighting with dimmer LEDs that no longer illuminate the ships passing underneath.) If you don't mind sharing, I'm curious what camera and lens combination you were using for this footage. Clearly a nice wide angle lens with a wide aperture.
