I'm yawning a lot while i watch this. But not because it's boring but very relaxing. I really like the atmosphere with all the distant lights and slightly muted sounds. More night train footage in the future would be nice.

Ok making some coffee - getting ready for The RailCowGirl's awesome video - Cheesehead approves of this excellent viewing material. Maybe someday you can have the speed show up in the corner - the train signs along the way would be neat to know what they all mean - figured out the dash meaning blow your horn....roll on .....

@RailCowGirl

3 жыл бұрын

I resume that is black coffee, not tainted with cream and sugar? ;) ❤️❤️❤️ I do have some videos where I've posted the speed limit in the corner, but I won't be able to show the true speed of the train. There are several reasons for this, one that GPS does not work in tunnels, well, no access to satellites in there, another reason is precision of the data recorded. There is a margin of error. And sometimes, when recorders lose track of gps, it will just calculate the speed = distance x time between the two points, and that can end up showing excessive speed compared to the line speed limit, which give people some serious challenges in form of reviews and audits. But adding speed limits is possible.
