7 days by freight - the Passengers

footage shot over 7 days while riding freight in Ontario & Manitoba. Consider it a small gimps into some of the things that come up during train hopping.
We we're stuck in the siding for quite some time and the scanner dialog has been majorly edited for time sake.

How did the train at 1:44 not see you/ your camera?

[wizehop]

@RailfanningRulez You would have to ask them, but my guess and well planning in that shot is that trains are so big you can easily hide a little handy cam up against rolling stock and make it hard to see. I definitely wasn't holding it..check maybe they did see it and didnt care..who knows
