Testing the new Camera and Gimbal on P3A

Just happened to be a train there when I was going to fly there.

Nice work. I have enjoyed doing a few train shoots too. I set up a video camera on the ground near the point I was flying and got some ground level video good and authentic sound that way.

Thanks. If you open it on YouTube and read the info. I worked for that RR for 35 years Been retired 18 now. I was trying to get up to the far end to film the Peace River but train had the crossing blocked. I just had time to go back to highway and up the other side of tracks. Screw on props and get it in the air. I was not looking for trains that day. .

Congrads on a great career railroading. Grandfather and uncle worked for the C&EI in Southern Illinois before those lines were abandoned. My father-in-law worked for the GM&O that eventually morphing into the IC. He retired after 40 years. Below is link to the engine used as a model for the one in the polar express movie; it is housed in Owosso, Michigan. Aerial Videography & Photography - Captured Memories Photography
