Following the Gypsum Train From Port to Mine and Back on a Beautiful Spring Day

An aerial video flying my sub-250 gm camera drone on a beautiful calm spring morning starting from near the entrance track to the National Gypsum (Canada) marine terminal at Wrights Cove, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia. We first filmed the CN 511 locomotives 5779 and 2547 alone, entering the facility and then backing out of the facility with the empty ore cars. Once they stopped at the switch on the mainline we drove to Windsor Junction to catch them there on the way to the mine. We then headed to the Milford mine site and filmed then entering the mine. Finally we headed to Sandy Cove on Shubenacadie Grand Lake and filmed the loaded gypsum train returning to the port marine terminal facility,

Filmed with my DJI Mini 2, a sub-250 gm weight camera drone, on May 25, 2022. Edited with CyberLink PowerDirector 20. I would like to thank MicoGhost TheOldCodger / @micoghosttheoldcodger for supplying his LUT file, which I used in PowerDirector. He created this LUT to make the Mavic Mini footage nearly match that of his DJI Mavic 2 Pro. It also improved the colour of my Mavic Mini 2 footage.

Many people ask about the sound in the title clip of my video. It is the call of the Common Loon (or Great Northern Diver), a bird that inhabits our lakes and I sometimes hear and see flying over our home. For more information see en.wikipedia.o....
