UP 2654 - Gregory Fisher Road, Stuttgart, AR
Union Pacific 2654 passes through with a regular intermodal on April 20, 2024. Note the rail enthusiast on the opposite side of the tracks; I'm not entirely sure who they are as I didn't think to ask, but I could almost immediately tell they had the same idea I did.

(Sony HDR-CX405 Test 2; Failure to Flag Crossing) UP 1129 - North Wood Street, Stuttgart, AR
Просмотров 7176 месяцев назад
...so apparently the crew doesn't know or care that the crossing is protected by only an island circuit on the third track and didn't stop and flag the crossing accordingly. Got it. I'm sure that's not an offense that could be punished by the loss of your job, right? (spoilers: it probably is) This only seems to be a concern when UP does this as they're usually only running around one or two ca...
(Sony HDR-CX405 Test Number 1) UP 2737 - Arkansas Traveler Hobbies, Bald Knob, AR
Просмотров 1586 месяцев назад
I decided to get myself an upgrade here recently in the form of a Sony HDR-CX405. I still need to go through and configure the settings to how I want them (as well as getting used to using it in general), but I feel like this will be a good upgrade in the long run. I felt like the best way to test it was naturally by filming a train, so I decided to catch this mostly unit covered hopper train (...

TRE 1008 Meets DART 251 - Victory Station, Dallas, TX
Просмотров 2048 месяцев назад
As TRE train 3916, led by cab car 1008, allows a bunch of Dallas Stars fans to deboard, a DART Green Line train pulls into its platform. Due to passengers from the TRE crossing the tracks in front of the DART train, the driver opted to use the air horn to warn them that a train was coming. Shortly after the arrival of the Green Line train, train 3916 departs with a couple of blasts from the hor...
(Ex-SP) UP 1015 - Gregory Fischer Road, Stuttgart, AR

While driving around, I noticed that UP 1015 (ex-SP 9794) was switching out cars in the Stuttgart yard. Noticing that it was crossing over onto the mainline siding, I kept a close eye on it until I confirmed that it was, in fact, leaving to head to Pine Bluff. I elected to catch the locomotive at Gregory Fischer Road because of its low traffic volume, song with opting to catch it on the driver’...

UP 8058 Passes LORAM RG408 - Saline Siding, Kingsland, AR
Просмотров 118Год назад
On Saturday, August 5, 2023, I was making a drive to Camden when I noticed that LORAM RG408, an RG400 series production rail grinder, was parked in the siding. The unit usually grinds at night, so I decided to swing back by on my way back home to get a better look at it while it was sitting there. Upon arrival, I also noticed a unit autorack train (maybe MASAR?) led by a single ES44AH, so I too...

NS 4524 leads a manifest train just outside of Humphrey, AR. Trailing in the consist is an NS ET44AC and NS 1070, the Wabash heritage unit. While 1070’s paint is wearing out a bit, it still looks somewhat decent, although NS is reportedly starting to repaint their heritage units into a fresh coat of paint, with units such as 1069 (Reading) and 8099 (Southern) having been repainted so far, so th...
RLIX 1422 - North Wood Street, Stuttgart, AR

Rail Link 1422 (ex-LTEX, originally built for Conrail) runs around a cut of cars in Stuttgart on a Sunday morning. At the time of filming (May 14, 2023), the locomotive could have been considered the “new guy”, with it having been in the area for less than two weeks. The crew seems to like it though, although it’s not quite as flexible as the older SW1200s due to the extra length, meaning it ha...

Testing another new tripod here, this one being taller than the other one, so hopefully I won’t have to hunch over when panning the camera. UP 6728 leads a manifest with a sizeable block of autoracks through the crossing on Senning Loop’s east end. Note the plaque on UP 6748; this is for the 1996 J.C. Kenefick Safety Award winner John W.

7FDL-16 and 16-710G3B-EC in Idle - Walnut Ridge, AR

This is a comparison of the idle states of a GE 7FDL-16 (as represented by UP C44ACM #6685) and an EMD 16-710G3B-EC (as found in UP SD70M #4299). Note that the 6685 is in low idle while 4299 is in what I believe is a sort of mid-idle state. The reason for the train stopping was to wait for another train coming from the opposing direction as the line singles up again north of Walnut Ridge. Short...

    what camera settings are you using?

    • @stampycatfan01lol
      @stampycatfan01lol 3 месяца назад

      Great question! For image quality settings, the recording mode is set to High Quality FH, the frame rate is set to 60i, and I've got the file format set to AVCHD. With the format settings, the result is exported as a .MTS file in the "Removable Drive (D:) > PRIVATE > AVCHD > BDMV > STREAM folder. It's a little bit of a maze to get through, but just follow the file names in the quotes in order to get to your videos. Keep in mind that the "Removable Drive (D:) file may be called something different, but it's the same procedure. The camera will ALWAYS export video files by number for some reason, but from what I've seen it's always ordered from oldest to newest. Sony does offer a free Windows program called PlayMemories Home that supposedly can help make exporting easier, but it's not required and I just use the File Explorer method. As for some other camera settings in the Camera/Mic menu, it's all mostly, if not all, unchanged from out of the box, with white balance, exposure, focus, IRIS and shutter speed all being set to auto, while Low Lux (low light) mode is off. Scene selection is set to auto, SteadyShot is active, digital zoom is off, and auto backlight is on. Microphone settings are all default settings (zoom mic and wind reduction both off, and "micref" level is normal), though I may experiment with the wind reduction feature at some point. I'd highly recommend you go out and tinker with the settings and find what works best for you though. Try getting test shots of various subjects like cars, scenery, buildings, just walking around, etc. while noting your settings for those clips to help with this, and consider connecting it to a TV or computer as the results really show on a bigger screen. I'm just using settings that make me happy with the end result, and it's likely you may find some settings that work better for you. One thing I WILL suggest, though, is to just bite the bullet and get a 256GB microSD card. It's well worth the extra cost, as one can give you over 32 hours of video time (compared to the measly 4 hours of a 32GB card). I've yet to see if a 512GB card works, but with a 256GB one, you can probably rely on that for YEARS. I use a SanDisk ImageMate series 256GB card, but it's likely a Walmart branded (onn.) one will work as well. Sorry if this was a long comment, but I hope it helps nonetheless.

    The great trick for the photographing the Clarendon bridge is being there when there is the rare river traffic which has the right of way over the railroad. It's a swing bridge and the Bridge Master is there 24/7. I had a good conversation with the day shift Bridge Master the last time I was several years ago. UP has built a new office for the Bridge Master since that time when it was a small wooden shack. Also in the their immense wisdom the State of Arkansas has destroyed the historic old road bridge that came into the center of Clarendon north of the railroad after a beautiful drive on what I call a causeway through the north edge of the White River National Wildlife Refuge.
