The Ghost Train - Part 2

http://www.LanceCampeau.com

Two years of waiting to re-create this unique railfan video... My original "Ghost Train?" video (viewed here... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r6AnrKy4tBo) is my most viewed railfan video, averaging about 400-600 hits per day... It was supposed to be a nice follow-through shot but I accidently hit the record button as I was panning through... This blown take ended up being one of my most viewed videos of all time... So to celebrate this... I decided to try and recreate my original intention for the shot by waiting for the right conditions to come up again... it took over two years for the right weather & lighting to fall into place... enjoy!
