Doncaster Freight - 8th January 2009

Took advantage of National Express's birthday offer of £5 single ticket, so decided to get the video camera out and venture to Doncaster station for the afternoon to capture the local freight movements. Mostly class 66's now unfortunately but it was a good afternoon.
You can watch the 17 minute version by visiting www.themarauder.co.uk and its video 6. (Better quality too, hosted by 'Vimeo.com'. Don't know what YouTube have done to their compression method but its poor.)

Well done production-wise for this video, happy yo use a tripod and dont zoom in / out too much! This is where many vids are let down in my opinion.

Good stuff mate any more??

Never used a tripod, just a big camera (Canon XL1s) and a steady hand. First time out for a year, don't get much chance to film due to work. Hopefully more later in the year. Thanks
