Thanks for doing such a good job with this video. I was on this train, like I am every year. Its nice to see what the train looks like from the outside. Steam trains are so much better in the cold weather!
Also, you really should shoot the video in high definition if your going to upload HD. I shot this particular video with a Sony HDR-HC7 high definition camcorder.
Now THAT was a professional video! Thanks for knowing what a tripod is used for and for NOT touching the zoom control. 3254 looked and sounded just awesome! The Ice Harvest was great too. You explained very well just what the whole purpose of the trip was. Thanks and please make more!
Very neat video Joe. I like seeing the Ice harvesting. There's a lake near me that was used for the same thing about 100 years ago. It's looks neat how they did that back in the good old day's. When my Mother was going up, they had a ice box. and a man would come around with blocks of ice. they only cost $.50 a block.
VERY nice, Joe! I think I enjoyed the scenes of the actual ice harvest just as much as I did the runbys. Makes me sorry I didn't ride the train that day (maybe next year?).
Beautiful locations, if you like scenic locations like these, you will love "The Spot" in Niles Canyon.
Come by and visit us soon.

Nice video. The sound of this train remind me of WAR in EUROPE.
Too BAD this train pollutes so much the atmosphere. Too much gases.

How did you do the HD?
sgprailfan 3 years ago
You have to export the file as a 720p .mov file.
Also, you really should shoot the video in high definition if your going to upload HD. I shot this particular video with a Sony HDR-HC7 high definition camcorder.
