コメントありがとうございます。朝５時に目が覚めて、天気が良いようなら出かけます。空が曇ると、途中で引き返すこともあります。暗い映像になってしまっては、その鉄道会社に申し訳ないですし、何より自分が撮っていてつまりませんから。

Another good video. Thanks for all of them.

[@14ikesan12]

It has a relaxing scenery that I like.

[@tonywise198]

@@14ikesan12 I agree, especially without the catenary wires and poles.

[@14ikesan12]

@@tonywise198 It feels good to look at the sky on a sunny day.

Your comment about the lack of electric overhead was right on. To see the scenery as clearly as in this video was really pleasing. One thing I'd like to ask about is the reddish ballast. Did they use a rock with a high iron content, or a reddish sandstone? Way back when, when steel was king in western Pennsylvania and northeastern Ohio, slag from the mills was often crushed and used as railroad ballast, and the color of this ballast reminded me of that. My curiosity has been tickled by this. It's another one of your great videos.

In the case of Japanese trains, it is said that the reddish ballast is caused by splashes of rain from the brake shoes rusting them. The brake shoes are made of cast iron. However, this has changed recently. The brake shoes used on most trains are now made of resin. It is true that the ballast on recent Japanese trains does not seem to be as reddish as it used to be.

Gracias pero, a la otra mejor sí deja el video completo sin cortar, yo digo.

Seguiré buscando mejores caminos poco a poco. Porque quiero que mucha gente sea feliz.
