Yes, this was shot in in 16:9 and made into a 4:3 video by accident. I didn't know it was set on 16:9 in the first place, so that is what messed it all up. I plan to reupload these this summer all in 4:3.
someone can tell what type of engines leads ? 3 and 4 are dash 8 40 CW ? please help me its so hard to identify american engines :( but they look strong :D and are very nice looking
@danisim9 The lead locomotive is a General Electric AC4400CW. Union Pacific refers it as a AC44CW-CTE. These engines, along with the ex-CNW, ex-SP, original UP AC4400CWs and UP's new ES4400CWs and ES4500CWs are called 'AC4400CCTEs'
Wow, awesome pacing video-- I liked how you had some really great closeups of parts of the lead engine thrown in there!! And, super how you let the entire train pull on ahead at the end so we could see what a monster train it was. This had to be "the most photographed freight" that day, LoL!! REALLY great video, super hard-core (as one of our friends would say)!!!
awesome chase love it

Yes, I used the wrong ratio for the camera setting. I may re-upload it again in 4:3 sometime this summer when I have time.

Theres something odd about this video.
Look at the wheels between 2:04 and 2:11.
They dont look circular but oval!
And the shape of the engines is strange on the whole.
I think the video was taken as wide screen and than converted to 4:3
Apart from this great video!
