I’m out in the dark virtually every week, so could film limitlessly.... but with little to see, I’m not sure there’s much merit on it

Have a watch of East Croydon to Haywards Heath - that got very dark towards the end, but I edited some of it out due to the dark

That is one of the weaknesses of digital cameras - in dim light, it struggles to process and pixelate everything that is dark when recording, and when taking a still picture the dark areas appear grainy. I assume that camera is HD, this is the reason why many smartphones have a light/torch on their back next to the camera. Obviously the driver (being human) has no problem, interesting to see that if the train is on a straight piece of track - the driver can see all the signals (of short blocks) and see what status they’re in and even see them change as he approach’s them.

Hi there. May I ask why you were surfing the yellows for pretty much the entire journey? Very few green aspects! It can't be that there was something in front of you of similar/slower pace? Were you just being speed-checked by a signaller? Was it because it was a journey that is not timetabled? I've no idea, just interested, that's all!
@emmo9993 жыл бұрын
It’s because of all the level crossings along this route. Until the barriers are confirmed down, the signal before shows yellow

I would happily film that section of route again in daylight, it’s just finding opportunity. I appreciate there’s little merit in completely pitch black filming, but dusk does show how an idea of how little we can see. Headlights are not very good - they’re for a train to be seen rather than to see

It had the purpose of turning the machine around. Tampers have a working direction, and on some jobs have to be facing a certain direction. Going in and out of Littlehampton facilitated a turn move

emmo999 Well, I don’t want to sound like I am belittling you, but we went through every station without stopping, there were no deboadings, no boarding, my question would be, “What was the purpose of the run?” Remember, I am in Maine, USA, I have no passenger service, and I have not seen any since I was a young child (about 1954- and steam) Not being fresh, just curious.
