Hi, I'm glad you enjoyed the sights and sounds 😊.

Can't sleep. It's 3:33 A.M here in Red Deer, Alberta. I am 26 minutes into this video and thinking, WHAT AN AWESOME discovery on KZread this morning. I am really enjoying this train ride through some of the most exquisite landscapes in the world. In praise of NewZealand and praises to the drivers of trains, especially those who film themselves on the job and staring forward. Driving a train is a very important job that carries a great weight of responsibility. I have always liked trains and enjoy watching these sorts of excursions from the cab. Thanks a lot for posting this. May your rail travels continue to be safe and enjoyable.

Hi, I'm sorry to hear you are having trouble sleeping. New Zealand is a beautiful, unspoiled country. This railway line sees just 2 or 3 passenger train a year, usually specials run by Steam Incorporated and the driver was kind enough to allow me to mount a camera on his locomotive. The driver has to be alert and ready to react because he doesn't know what is around the next corner. The loco crew often have the best view and we are fortunate that a good number of them mount cameras and upload the resulting videos to KZread giving everyone the opportunity to enjoy the view usually only seen by the train crew. I'm pleased you enjoyed the video.

Another masterpiece of a video.... One thing that I'm happy to note after watching this video; is that the sheep/lambs trespassing onto the railway in NZ are every bit as dull as those who used to trespass onto the railway on my patch in South Wales UK... I simply lost count of how many sheep/lambs (unintentionally) went under the wheels of my train & thus failed to make it to the dinnerplate in my 40 years of driving trains... Now happily retired...

Thank you, I'm pleased you enjoyed the ride, sheep tend to be a bit daft wherever they happen to live. The scenery in this part of New Zealand is similar to Wales as is the weather. I guess the sheep that perished under the wheels of your train didn't go to waste, it’s surprising how quickly the carcasses get stripped by other animals. I hope you are making the most of your retirement.

A fantastic and picturesque rides this day. The goats were lucky! The weather is great, interesting to gaze at. Thank Tim for the film this day. Cheers Tim! 🇦🇺🙂👍🇺🇸

Tim says it in the description, but for those interested the road (SH3) in the Gorge permanently closed in April 2017 due to multiple slips. Originally they were going to clear it and re-open as normal but due to constant ground movement, work was stopped in July 2017 and the decision to close it indefinitely was made. Now it's left for mother nature to reclaim. You can see at 1:30:30 the new expressway in the hills currently under construction to bypass it (and then 1:49:30 for the other end). I went on it for my work late last year to do some testing and one thing I can say is it's quite steep! I think it's supposed to open mid next year. Will be a blessing because that Saddle pass alternative is a nightmare!

The ballast serves a number of functions including drainage as well as holding the track in position. It rains a lot in New Zealand, maybe that has something to do with the generous ballast shoulders, hopefully someone who actually knows the answer will reply.

Your videos are too contrasty: we lose the vision of clouds and shadows. To avoid this, it is important to - DO NOT USE the default setting, especially with Gopro, but the flat profile (never "natural" or "gopro) - Set the exposure correction to -1.5 or -1.0, in flat profile, it will be brighter than in Gopro color profile, and in addition, we will have the clouds in the sky correctly rendered (rule which has remained unchanged since the slide from the 1960s) - Check that you are importing, in the case of 8-bit Gopro's rush, the complete profile (PC color, not TV color !), for exemple the VLC software does not know how to read the PC-color and does not render the video as original , but more contrasted and clipped and can cause you to miss this error because you only see part of the values ​​and may believe that the lack of dynamic is due to a small sensor, without ever seeing what your camera is capable of . Almost 9 out of 10 videos or even more are of low quality due to lack of knowledge of these essentials. One thing is certain: you should NEVER stay on the default settings, they are more and more influenced by Instagram or story videos, and not adapted to the landscape. Sincerely.
