Well thanks so much Jack your kind of comment is about the highest kind of remark someone could make! Non railfans thinking it's pretty neat means I must really be doing something right! I'm glad you're here and do indeed hope you enjoy more.

Thanks so much I'm glad you enjoyed! I hadn't even considered the Autumn factor when I initially planned the trip out here so it was a major bonus!

I love your comment because it looks like you saw or crossed several times.

Thanks so much you're too kind! I'm glad you feel that way about the music because I spend a lot of time picking what I think will work well.

I 100% agree!

Thanks so much Tom!

Thanks so much I'm humbled you think so! Well that's a special event in itself to take the Overland route on the Zephyr. Very cool!

Thanks a lot and glad you're enjoying the narration!

A quality video master.

I was so ecstatic about that race as it happened! Best part of my journey for sure.

Yes do not take it for granted! This is 13 hours away for me but completely worth the drive!

Ha thanks Richard! I know it was fun to watch how everyone was so nice and loved the first video with the coal trains and in my mind I kept thinking oh man you all just wait until the big one! I originally was going to make it one big long video but once I started editing I realized that was going to be too much for me so I decided to split it up as you see now.

Thank you! You can count on it.

Thank you Thomas I knew you would enjoy after how much you mentioned you liked the video before this one! I am so satisfied with the multiple trains I caught in the different locations! Yeah that daylight Zephyr chase was a massive bonus as well! When I planned this trip I had not even considered what the Autumn colors would be like so I was blown away when I got there! They are accurate to what you see as well. I did not enhance the colors in any way. I've still got more great Utah stuff coming up that I think you'll really enjoy.

We appreciate this very professional and better planned work.

Thanks so much you're too kind!

That's great!

Well thank you so much!

Hey thanks Rick for the story and reminder on that! This was seriously the top place I had wanted to visit and film trains for some years so this video specifically is one of my biggest personal wins of all time (Including that race which I really was MAJORLY foaming at the mouth about!!!). I am thinking the video of yours I commented on I was super excited to see something from this line at the time since I hadn't made it there yet! That whole Amtrak chase really was a treat too since it would have mostly been in the darkness if it was on time.

Thanks a lot I'm humbled you think so!

@@TheRailfanDan I have not seen such beautifully shot and narrated so well.

Thanks so much!

Thank you Michael I am glad you are enjoying! 😁

Thank you!

I agree! Thanks a lot my friend!

waved at you !!

Thank you so much!

Thank you so so much Rick you are so kind! You're absolutely right it is most definitely for the Big Boy!

Thanks a bunch! Well that's neat this is a great one to watch if you haven't seen the area before.

Thanks so much I hope you enjoy more of my material!

Thanks a lot I'm humbled you think so! I've got some more great stuff coming up so stay tuned.

@@TheRailfanDan anytime Dan, I’m serious - one of the best I’ve ever watched. I look forward to it and will be going back to see any I may have missed. You have given me a new location to model when I make the switch from N scale to HO scale. Happy New Year! - Steve

Thanks a lot and Happy Holidays to you too!

Thanks so much!

Yes I agree! It's very nice to be able to get close up shots without actually being super close.

Thanks so much! I know I too was blown away by the Autumn colors.

You're right I was pretty happy myself with that being my first catch of the trip! I actually caught those two again some days later East of Helper Utah on another local train which will be part of the next video I upload. Thanks so much for thinking so highly of my work!

Thank you so much!

Thanks a lot Z! I also was blown away by the Autumn colors as what you see is exactly how it was. I did not enhance the color at all. I am very proud of this one. This region has been very high on my bucket list to get checked off for quite a few years now. I enjoyed everything about it along the way. I've still got some more great stuff from this Utah trip coming up as well that I am sure you will enjoy!

Yes I am glad you see it as well! Quite a few unique things here that I was ecstatic about capturing! You're right as well about some flooding. Just a couple of weeks before I ventured out here there was a bad washout on the highway in Price Canyon that resulted in some major equipment being brought in to get it fixed up. Luckily by the time I got there it was back to being a paved section of road again.

@@TheRailfanDan I couldn't tell if that was a washout or routine bridge replacement from the very brief drone view. Timing on that sounds about right for the moisture from hurricane Hillary

Well thanks so much! Solider Summit mountain pass is between Provo and Helper Utah.

Oh cool! What are you wanting to upgrade to?? Before the Mavic 3 Pro I used the Inspire 2 for a few years but now I've barely used it since the 3 Pro. It's amazing what different dynamics you can get with the 3 different focal lengths of the 3 Pro and the main camera is extremely good! We are in a very modern era of drones no doubt.

I have a old Inspire 1 that is collecting dust and also a Mavic 2 and 3 Pro.. I am moving to the Avtel Max 4T or 4N to get away from the geo fencing.@@TheRailfanDan

Thanks a lot! Yes definitely great views for modeling huh?

Thank you thank you!

Thank you Happy Holidays to you as well!

Thanks Bill I thought you would enjoy! I knew about the realignment but didn't know what that grade was. 4% is ridiculous! I'm glad you enjoyed the music because it's tough to find enough music for a hour and a half that works well together! I think there are 32 songs here.

The last train I chased there was the Rio Grande Zephyr. Amtrak doesn’t do it justice.

Thanks a lot Ron! I love the Gilluly loops and am so satisfied with everything I caught there. Happy Holidays to you as well.

Thank you so much! I still have the Inspire 2 but with the variety in the shots on can achieve with the 3 cameras on the Mavic 3 it's hard to want to fly anything else! The main camera of the Mavic 3 is actually a bit better than my Inspire 2's X5S camera in my opinion.

Thanks Rick I too wish it were easy to add! Drones do not record audio though. The only way to add it is to capture sound from a microphone from the ground and then edit it to match the drone video which a lot of the time isn't easy to do and make it sound like what you're actually watching. Sometimes it can work out but with a moving camera in the air and a stationary microphone it can be difficult to match.

@@TheRailfanDan what you are doing is really enjoyable! I love watching your videos!

Once again you have created an amazing video. Your style and the way you integrate music and your voice overs makes it so much fun to watch. You are definitely THE MAN when it comes to train videos.

I wondered about the specifics of that first BNSF train and figured it was something along those lines but didn't actually know so didn't say anything about it. The Castilla pronouncement is something else I was unsure of so decided to just play it safe ha!

Thanks Gordon! I'm very happy you're satisfied with how the voice over is. For years I thought that was something I would never do but everyone seems to be really enjoying it that way.

I admit I still need to get my 107. It will require a lot of studying time for me personally which is hard to make time for but I am committing to getting it this year. I have started studying several different times but have had trouble sticking with it since it does take hours and hours.

I always do a lot of planning out ahead of vising anywhere I go. Places to park and where I can position myself to be able to fly to specific locations. That in itself is a big part of it for me ahead of time and I did plenty of that here too. You definitely should get out and explore with your drone!

You're telling me! I wish that were possible! Even to have that capability in the 80s would have been amazing. So many things from even that time that are gone now.

Thank you Richard sorry not quite sure which part you are talking about though!

The radio frequency is 160.455 and a quick Google search shows that it translates to AAR channel 23 if that's what you need. Awesome I bet he would love watching you do that!

It's quite a busy highway in general.

A cow!

@@TheRailfanDan Thanks for the answer! Your videos are inspiring. I am a subscriber and watch the videos.

I couldn't believe it was real myself but it what you see is accurate. I did not enhance the colors at all in the video.

It was Rio Grande (DRGW) until 1988, then SP after Rio Grande bought the SP and chose to use the SP name. In 1996 it became UP after UP bought the SP.

Track elevations?

I use Google Earth. Anywhere you put the cursor on the PC version of Google Earth it will tell you the elevation.

Ha yeah good point there huh? Glad you enjoyed. Thanks a lot!

Thank you so much I'm humbled you think that highly of it! I am quite proud of this one. I enjoy adding the ground shots for the audio since we don't get any of that from the drone. The biggest setback using a drone in my opinion. You're right though definitely not as exciting.

Drones unfortunately do not record audio. I too wish I could add more train sounds but it takes a lot of work to add train sounds to the drone footage and make it sound accurate to what you're seeing. Once in a while I do it but it adds a whole other layer to editing and much of the time I don't feel I have enough good audio to use to make it sound accurate.

Agree, if the drone recorded sound we would hear just the chopping copter blades. Correct?
