Eastern Railroad Discussion > CSX Chessie 1973 on M647

Yesterday morning I tuned into my radio to hear M647(Chicago-Waycross) call out a signal and say CSX 1973. This is on the CSX CE&D sub in southwest Indiana. I hurried to the back of the field with barely enough time to setup the ground camera & get the drone airborne. It was a cloudy sunrise. The plastic strips you see in the field are for watermelon or cantaloupe plants.

Well done!

Thank you Ted. I really enjoy making videos vs taking photos. ;) I have a YouTube channel, "Grainexpress". Look around and see if there is anything you like. Been doing it since 2010.  Youtube doesn't like me because I do not upload regularly so my videos don't pop up much in the suggested video column.

Super nice!  Thanks for sharing.

Agreed.  Nice job on the video.

I assume your talking about YouTube. Just remember, it doesn't cost you a dime but I have paid for a drone, a nice Canon video camera, good editing software and a powerful computer to run it so you and others can enjoy watching train videos(for free). I sincerely enjoy sharing with others to make this hobby enjoyable for all.

Nice catch! I think the Chessie scheme blends well. I think they need a bigger Chessie logo though.

Also, if you pony up for the YouTube Premium, you don't see any ads (and the content creator still makes a bit in "royalties").  I found it was a worthwhile trade-off myself since I watch a lot of YouTube videos and live streams.
 

Nice video!!

Nice video and great editing!
Congrats on VOTD Too.
I will look for your tube channel and subscribe.

My tube channel is RailBrat,
I have been real slow uploading more videos to my channel, (mostly UP Steam trips transfered from VHS) raw video, no captions or editing (still intend to learn how to do that) just didn't have time or patience to do that process.
And yes tube runs ads before some of my videos no matter how few subscribers or views I actually have.
