    Awesome video w several great catches! The one video of the semi trailers being pulled w a dolly type system was pretty neat vs the ones that usually have trailers underneath them. Also wanted to let you know just 3weeks ago my good friend Joe Morris who works out of the EDGEMOOR YARD in WILMINGTON,DE was the ENGINEER on the 911 FIRST RESPONDERS LOCOMOTIVE that was at the CLAYTON INTERCHANGE to meet our local short line in Lower Sussex County Delaware.

      Thanks. I was not sure if I wanted to include that shot since a lot of viewers might not like that the train makes up such a small amount of the frame, but it's certainly one of the more eye-catching stone/brick buildings along the line. The same could be said for the Alburtis Tavern, but that's much harder to frame in a shot.

    You do such wonderful work, always well composed and framed correctly! Now if you had a 4k/60 frame video camera...

    • @CentralPennRailProductions
      @CentralPennRailProductions  7 лет назад

      It sucks that 4K is limited to 30p right now unless you spend a small fortune. 4K is a nice resolution for video but I think 1080/60p at a high bitrate is still better than 4K/30p for mainline stuff. I have a 4K monitor and I see nothing wrong with the 1080/60p shots compared to my 4K stuff. 4K 30p only captures slow moving trains well, otherwise the clarity between frames and rolling shutter issue just don't make the footage as professional as 60p, although 4K shots look incredible in telephoto while the wide angle shots lot almost the same. I think a lot of people can overlook this difference which is why they just choose to jump to 4K/30p, but perhaps I hold myself to too high of a standard ;-) Someday when I have more time to travel again I'll probably invest in 4K/60p equipment...

    • @denault3985
      @denault3985 7 лет назад +1

      You should look at the new Panasonic GH5, 4k/60fps and a selection of bitrates. I think TNT Productions (in the Boston area) is planning on a purchase.

    • @CentralPennRailProductions
      @CentralPennRailProductions  7 лет назад

      Interesting, I am not a big fan of DSLR bodies as video cameras; however, I will monitor it's performance as the year goes on and see how good it does. 4K/60p in a small body is impressive; however, the bitrate associated with it is rather small for what I would ballpark it to be...unsure if they will release a later firmware with a higher bitrate like Sony did with their 4K/30p cameras. Anyway, I'll make do with what I have this year since I don't have much time for trains right now, would like to upgrade again by 2018 if possible. That camera looks like a leaps & bounds release compared to what stagnant progress Canon and Sony have had since 2014.

    • @CentralPennRailProductions
      @CentralPennRailProductions  7 лет назад

      NS re-rated all of their Dash-9's and ES40DC's to 4,400 HP a couple years ago. They even changed the labels on the cabs to "D9-44CW" and "ES44DC" You might be thinking of CSX, who de-rated all of their ES44DC's to ES40DC's.
