Nice video Walter. I like seeing these big Trains powering up and taking off, with the smoke and such. It's a thing of beauty. To bad you can't catch a coal train taking off.
When you chase a train like that Walter, it just emphasises the length of them, and when it finally pulls away you can feel the tension and strain on getting that massive load moving...excellent video...Bob
Hi Walter, I have just got back from holiday to the north of England - it was warm enough there, but we arrived back home this afternoon to 31 degrees celcius.
Thats quite phenomenal really when you drive past that train and we actually see just how long it really is. quite staggering just the shear length of it. Must take serious horsepower to move all that dead weight from a full stop. Mind boggling!!! :-)
Nice catch!

Thanks Chris, I trust you had a nice holiday trip. Im not familiar with celcius temp. It is measured in farenheit here
pwalpar 1 year ago
@pwalpar Thanks Walter, I think 30 celcius is around 86-88 fahrenheit - cool for you at present, but hot for us!
