Hi All,
This is meant to be a kid-friendly channel with mostly train and cat videos, though scenery-oriented videos created with my drone will also be included and perhaps some videos about linguistics and fandoms, especially anything Star Trek (as you might guess from the channel title), Harry Potter, or Tolkien. I could also include a little philosophical content, photography oriented videos and cooking videos. Individual videos on topics other than trains or my cats might be more restricted in terms of viewership, depending on the specific content.
Please remember to be respectful of EVERYBODY in any comments you make. At the same time, I tend to be quite receptive to constructive criticism about how my videos can be improved. As long as you are making suggestions addressing specific points in the video and offering concrete ideas about what I could do differently, I'm happy to hear from you and I hope that we all can learn from each other's ideas.
Thank you all for watching!

What a Feeling to be a cat
Просмотров 326 месяцев назад
My cats being lazy and being playful. Set to Irene Cara's "What a Feeling." May her memory be a blessing to all who knew her and all who have enjoyed her music. Here is the link to the specific video from which I took the audio: ruclips.net/video/hAyRLNLgCc0/видео.html The video is a blend of her live stage performance and some scenes from the movie "Flashdance" in which the song is used. I'm n...

Saturday Morning at the Oceanside Pier

Views from Oceanside Pier. Note, Circumstances required me to stay in one place so there isn't a lot of variety of views. I have set this to Beethoven's Emperor Concerto, and hope to create a better video using the same music later. Fortunately, I'm not out to win medals.

A brief view working with combining views from my land-based camera and my drone. The first train, a Coaster going out of service is only viewed from land. It passed as I was setting up the drone. Note that my drone remains at all times over the parking lot I was in. If you are considering using a drone for rail-fanning this is an important point since 1) the area over the train's right-of-way ...

Great Metrolink and train action

Happy new year
Looks like my cat so cute'❤
The holiday train only goes to Solana
Did i meet you because you can see me with the blue tripod
I believe we at least said, "hi." I remember. you being there, but I don't think I caught your name. I was the older guy.
Great railfanning with you! Nice video
Don't quite know why but, there's something oddly peaceful about this.
2303 has a very interesting horn. Another interesting thing with 5004 is that the right ditch light delays when flashing.
San diego coaster trains will head between encititas to Schicago.
The train cant stop
The amtrak trains come first.Then the coaster trains comes last.
The opening shot is called the cut it is where the Eaet end tower once stood my Dad was a Dispatcher for the Santa fe on the Needles Subdivision In the 60's and 70's
Ah, thank you for that information.
New subscriber ! Nice Video!.. love the Barstow action.
Welcome! Thank you! Where are you based?
The clarity is excellent..but you desperately need to invest in a tri-pod...you're making the viewers dizzy, as you wave the camera around.
I bought a new. tripod since I was in Barstow. Unfortunately, I then broke my leg and will be out of commission for a while. Some days I am able to hold the camera quite steady, Other days not so much. Also the tripod I had on that trip was very cheap so even with it, I got some jerking and accidentally panning up, down, sideways, etc. Still, thank you for the comment. I appreciate it VERY MUCH.

Awesome!
Thanks!
Nice video man! Its nice to see the blue line goes back on the green.
Thanks. Yes, the Blue Line and the Green line follow the same track and make the same stops between Santa Fe Depot and Old Town. At Old Town the Blue Line heads north next to the Coaster/Amtrak tracks instead of turning east to the Morena Blvd. stop.

23:33 # Shave and a Haircut, Two Bits!!! Support the train horns and say no to them quiet zones!
AGREED! The NIMBYs' excuse for QZ's is their dumb, huge, manufactured housing tracts which no one can afford being next to the tracks... You guys built it there and the train was there first!! Not sure why the Coaster decides to succumb to the fate of the NIMBYs but it's sad that soon places like Carlsbad and Encinitas as we know them will be gone.
@@F59PHI I’ve protesting against the quiet zones in my videos. Starting in December of 2022. The # Shave and a Haircut, Two Bits!!! anti QZ movement started and I got the Coaster and Amtrak crews to go crazy as they wanted with their horns to say no to the quiet zones as I do to.
I saw a video from the East Coast where the author was saying that a town had an ordinance forbidding train horns. Now, it did say that the train must use its bells, but I still wonder just how safe that it. We like the the resonance and the patterns of blowing horns and so forth, but they're not there (just) for our entertainment. I can see how people with busy tracks just out their back doors might have a problem with being woken up at the crack of dawn or at midnight, but isn't that better than someone - especially a young child - getting killed? When I was 14 I visited an aunt in Wisconsin who had the Soo Line going through her backyard with crossings on both sides. I went out to watch the trains pass and almost jumped on to the tracks from being startled once when an engineer, possible concerned about how close I was, but probably just because of the upcoming crossing (I'm not sure how far it was), blew his horn when he was right in front of me. Of course, I exaggerate about jumping onto the tracks, but it is the cartoonish image that fixed itself into my brain even then. Still, I wouldn't have traded that for anything. I wish I had had a camcorder on that entire trip. Between the awesome midwest thunderstorms and the trains, and many other sights that were new to this San Diego kid, I would have been in heaven with a camcorder.
@@rationaltrekker2509 quiet zones are the worst thing to have.
Cool video stay dry!
Thanks! Will do!

Another great one! My only suggestion: Sync the audio between your two cameras and then use one track throughout the clip, rather than changing audio tracks when you transition.
