I also love the terminal in Greenport which has a small museum. As a kid, my little brother and I watched steam locos and miss the coal smoke aroma. Diesels unfortunately smell like buses.
No cannonball ever will be a 400 only 500 engines are used for cannonball being they are the only engines with 3rd rail capability. Cannonball starts in penn . Great video tho
Do any New York and Atlantic freights run on the Montauk branch ? I miss the GP38-2 locomotives that used to handle the passenger runs out east, but they were sent to NY and Atlantic, and along with the ALCO C430 - they did not hold back at all.
@@3985uprr Thanks ! All I need now is a scanner and what frequencies to listen to. Keep your ideas coming - I have two grandsons ages 8 and 3 who would be mesmerized watching the freights run past.
@@3985uprr some could beg to differ. I personally like them. Oh, and controversy time: the hybrid K5LA on the Acela power cars is better than the K5LLA. I said it. Sorry but it's a fact🙂
That was Great. I would like to make a few points on your style. You would do much better in quality of the shots if you just 1. take off the Star filter. 2. Stand back from the moving train. your much too close to get sharp moving shot. it also hurts the eyes. I have noted that most all the videos I have been watching. for some reason, everyone tries to put the lenses right head onto a moving object. Not a good Idea, everything is blurred at speed, even on a slow moving object. Stay still. Do not Pan Fast, Do not Zoom Fast. Your not doing any of that so don't worry. Just the fist two I noted with numbers. Please Keep em cumming. Hey Cannonball back in the day's gone by, I remember counting many a Friday 14 and sometimes 16 cars behind 2 and 3 lash up of power.
Thanks for your constructive comments. I will keep that in mind when appropriate. I have shot video for numerous video producers and I still do. I just have had that style for decades. It’s been well received. Unfortunately it’s hard to please every viewer. I have seen lots of video and I have seen many poor styles and I do my best not to adopt them.
Tim does a helluva job for being one of the steadiest hand-held phone videographers on RU-vid. Most of us like his style and narrative form, else we wouldn't watch them with such anticipation and zeal.
