Only comment I have: Awsome that you were able to put this up in HD, and you got a great shot of the train! ... although she just got clearance to haul butt... (for about forty miles) this wasn't exactly a highball -- If you could experience her tearing by at 100+ ... now /that/ is bookin'!
I thought about heading out towards Pewaukee where SP 4449 would be really moving, then I thought against it. It was a very long haul to go out that far and then I realized the train would be going so fast that I'd only get about 30 seconds of video on a decent stretch of track. I like how close you were to the train.
This is what, like 55th and State St? Nice catch!

Well, she was flying when I caught her in Brookfield. However, you should be proud of this video. Love that stack talk!

I just checked your page, I don't think you put up video of this train? My mistake. Sorry 'bout that.

Rob, you are a master cinematographer. So glad to be there with you.

So I take it that the video turned out well? A little shaky at times but it was windy.
