    0:40 - (Skip Intro)
    9/24/17 - An entire train of brand new Postal Service trailers heads east through Robesonia with an increasingly rare H1 BNSF Dash-9 in the consist. Seeing a solid TOFC train of this size is reminiscent of the 90's and early 2000's, but is a practice that has disappeared around here in the post-Conrail days.
    0:40 - I4Z - Chicago, IL - Croxton, NJ (Special section)
    NS C44-9W 9593
    BNSF ES44C4 7923
    BNSF C44-9W 1054 H1
    10/01/17 - A rather loud SD60E leads 15T under a rising moon at Robesonia. No wonder SD60E's have been nick-named "thunder cabs" by crews.
    2:20 - 15T - Allentown, PA - Birmingham, AL
    NS SD60E 6915
    NS C44-9W 9058
    NS ES44DC 7605
    10/23/17 - A GP38-2 from the local pool leads 33A east toward Allentown on a blustery evening. This train would be re-symboled to 30A in 2018.
    4:00 - 33A - Enola, PA - Allentown, PA
    NS GP38-2 5304
    NS C44-9W 8971
    NS SD40-2 3376
    NS SD40-2 3489
    NS GP38-2 5282
    10/24/17 - 15T rounds the bend west of Richland through the fields in some of the sweetest evening light I have ever seen.
    5:25 - 15T - Allentown, PA - Birmingham, AL
    NS C44-9W 9012
    NS C44-9W 9704
    NS C44-9W 9383
    10/28/17 - A few days later, we see the same fields being harvested as loaded autos 18N head east.
    6:30 - 18N - Fostoria, OH _ Doremus, NJ
    NS C44-9W 9686
    NS SD60I 6744
    11/18/17 - A late 17G heads west after sunrise.
    8:30 - 17G - Morrisville, PA - Conway, PA
    NS SD70ACe 1116
    NS SD70ACU 7297
    Later that morning it starts to rain, as coal loads cross form 1 to 2 at Prescott with a ratty former AC6000CW second out.
    10:20 - 874 - Columbus, OH - Carney's Point, NJ
    NS SD70M-2 2706
    NS AC4460CW 6924
    NS ES44AC 7760
    With rain still pouring, mail train 21M passes a blooming berry tree at Avon.
    11:55 - 21M - Croxton, NJ - Chicago, IL
    NS SD70ACe 1047
    NS SD60E 7033
    NS C44-9W 9973
    11/24/17 - A colorful consist, including an increasingly rare gray KCS SD70MAC, leads 16T across Railroad Street in Myerstown.
    13:20 - 16T - Birmingham, AL - Allentown, PA
    CN C44-9W 2532
    NS C44-9W 9059
    KCS SD70MAC 3921
    11/25/17 - A GREX ballast car and cleaner set heads west; I have never seen cars like this before.
    14:55 - 920 - Birdsboro, PA - NS System MOW
    NS C44-9W 9393
    11/26/17 - Ethanol loads roll east past the train station at Annville on a sunny afternoon.
    15:50 - 64T - Chicago, IL - Port Richmond, PA
    NS C44-9W 9512
    NS SD60E 6940
    NS SD70M-2 2737
    12/3/17 - 290 heads east with an SD40-2 leader as sun sets behind the Lebanon train station.
    17:25 - 290 - Birmingham, AL - Croxton, NJ
    NS SD40-2 3553
    NS C44-9W 8924
    On the way home, a massive "blood moon" started to rise over the fields, so I decided to grab some shots with some lite power for the audio.
    18:45 - 685 Lite Power - Reading, PA - Enola, PA
    Thanks for Watching!

    Another winning combo...great photography skill and stunning eastern scenery...plus even real weather (it never rains in Southern California).
    Any word on the next 4k camera? Btw, I bought the Panasonic G9 with 4k/60fps (at least for 10-minute segments).

      Right now I am borrowing a Panasonic HC-X1. It's quite a different game, and I am not sure I am sold on the DVX-200 based on this camera (and other feedback I've read). The explanation is long, but I will take the time to learn this camera before making up my mind. I'd love to get a GH5 (or the next one that comes out) as a B camera to supplement a larger camcorder, but right now I don't think the 4K-60p is all there in a all-in-one camcorder for under $4,000 range. The primary issue I see with the Panasonic pro cameras 4K-60p is that the resolution is very soft (even when properly focused) compared to what my Sony shoots. I'm not sure if this is because the sensor tech is from 2015 (my Sony is from 2014 and it's better?) or if they were going for more of a cinema look right out of the camera, or both, if that makes sense. I found the 4K resolution barely greater than the HD my Sony was putting out, which to me would not be worth shelling a few thousand for. Others noted you could achieve a better 4K output recording to an external recorder, which really dampens the run-and-gun capabilities of an all-in-one camera, not to mention more $ and time for post-production. Maybe this was by design, who knows... but I might finish out the year with my Sony AX-100 and see just what is on the horizon before making an upgrade to out-dated tech. I will watch the BMPCC4K to see how it performs, some have noted that this camera gets extremely hot during long recordings (I don't know what the definition of long is?) Probably not an issue for trains...I think that's the reason the G9 only records 10 minute sessions, because it needs time for the internals to cool down to maintain the shot. You can wear a camera out very quickly by running it hot all of the time. Aside from cameras, I'd like to expand into sliders and other add-on tech to make some creative shots. I think a slider, with the proper use, could make for some interesting shots, as I am getting bored with a static tripod set-up haha.

      You have some of the sharpest and best color in the arena of train videos. Regarding the G9, the 10 minute limitation is totally arbitrary since I can immediately go back to recording (no heat problems).
