Thanks, nice of you to notice. The clear night footage is not by accident. I've been doing low-light astrophotography for decades and have refined techniques for getting good low-light photos and video. Part of it is using a sensitive full-frame camera with exceptional low-light sensitivity, combined with a sharp, low-flare, image-stabilized lens. The other part is meticulous post-processing: image stabilizing, adjust the tone and color for, and denoising (if needed) each individual video clip. For this video this is about 5 hours of work, for some which have many more clips it can be 8-10 hours just for 15 minutes of video! Some nice stuff on your channel as well.
Nice drone shots of the ladder tracks at Yeoman. Ethanol train with CPKC power likely CSX train symbol B621. Train likely loaded in Minnesota or North Dakota. Overall niiiice video!
Thanks. Yes the ethanol train was originally B621. Interestingly the shots of Yeoman yard aren't drone shots, they are taken from the Orient Road overpass (bridge) that goes over a section of the yard, with a telephoto lens.
What a nice time of day to see these beauties.
That was a really nice video, not too long.
Cool, love how good the night videos come out too!

@ wow, sounds like a lot of hard work! Hoping to upgrade video equipment soon and learn more techniques!
Also thanks, same goes for your channel too!
