    An afternoon of CSX & Amtrak

    NYS&W's SD70M-2's, ALL 4 of them with a little help from a SD33eco & sd40-2

    SU100 and the Cortland power stuck together equals this :)

    Kentucky Railway Museum Cab Ride

    Had to do some work down in Kentucky AND was within driving distance of a museum. One of the BEST ever "Railfan" days for me.

    CSX In Central NY & Samsung s23 Ultra , Camera & Video Editor Discussion

    Order in. I've used stands before, and the vibration from the train overwhelmed the anti shake, but that was a free standing stand vs. one where my grip dampens the vibrations.

    Another 4K entry, and the Shadow's really "pop" out where with Standard def they don't :)

    Now "4k" is possible on the down load, and my GRAPHICS card is the bottle neck , same as with the Editors. This a "Low Light" capture with EMD's paired up with GE's/ The second trains DPU and interestingly painted EMD sd70 :)

    CSX In Central NY & Samsung s23 Ultra , Camera & Video Editor Discussion

    More "research" and a HUGE upgrade. One of the "bottle necks" in this endeavor was both the uploading of Video but also the play back. I had a older Belkin wifi router with an ookla test result like 15-20 mbps down load & 5-8 mpbs upload. SO partly because of feed back here I bought another...

    A CSX Intermodal "Accelerates" EB Out Of DeWitt & Amtrak Whistles By ( Cool Effect )

    Another long CSX train headed east summer of 2023. They seem to get longer and longer, this in the 600 axle range . BUT when it crosses the road at Kirkville, A Amtrak goes by on the other side with whistle going "woo - woo" as it's sound it blocked by cars. I thought it was cool. And I tagged...

    This one has to be the longest manifest CSX train I've seen yet. 720 Axles. Like it never ends!

    CSX In Central NY & Samsung s23 Ultra , Camera & Video Editor Discussion

    Settled on this mix for the equipment I have: Samsung s23 Ultra set at hd60, Openshot with effectively the same resolution on the output file BUT with a 59.2 fps setting vs the 60. NO idea why that works but it got rid of some stop/start jerks during the video.

    CSX In Central NY & Samsung s23 Ultra , Camera & Video Editor Discussion

    Interesting & thank you BTW. If you were to "spec" a machine, starting with a gen 11 0r 12 i7, what would you see as a solid machine to run these new editors like Divinci Resolve or what I've decided either Lightworks ( Because I worked with the founder in the '90's ) or Openshot ? Seems to me...

    CSX In Central NY & Samsung s23 Ultra , Camera & Video Editor Discussion

    The zoom is rough as the control on my Samsung s23 Ultra is sliding my finger on the screen. And it steps regardless how I do that. I think with a better video editor I could work to smooth that. Actually this exercise is going to be expensive for me. I literally have 10 hrs of editing on that...

    CSX In Central NY & Samsung s23 Ultra , Camera & Video Editor Discussion

    This one might be too much data for most "lap tops" but works fine on my samsung s23. Video was taken in the "uhd60" and I used Openshot editor and did the output file in 2.5K or 2560 x1440. Very dense and takes a fast internet connection AND a fast video display on the viewing device.

    CSX In Central NY & Samsung s23 Ultra , Camera & Video Editor Discussion

    please try it again. When I went to the YouTube channel direct it ran. So I deleted the link and just pasted the link again. Seems to work for me, ALSO this was recorded and saved from the editor in ultra high definition at 60fps. That could create an issue because of raw amount of data that's...

    More testing and I'm getting a better idea of what editors to use & avoid as well....this one OpenShot again. My issue with OpenShot is it is SO SLOW!

    BNSF & Union Pacific Lead NS On The Southern Tier

    Not sure if this is related to Norfolk Southern's power shortage supposed issue, but it's good for the rail fans! Lots of foreign power seen on this part of the NS rail system. This one of many :)

    Norfolk Southern's "Southern Tier" In New York State, A Mix Of EMD & GE Power, with a little CSX In There :)

    A few shots as we build a collection on these historical lines. Starting with NS Moving GVT's Historical ALCO PA "Snap Shot". The A "Chase" From Afton to "Tunnel" NY, Last A West Bound Thru Owego with a real interesting Power Consist. Actually interesting as it shows the "state" of Norfolk...
