This is a screenshot taken from the GO app of a flight I made this morning. The bridge is over the Red River at the Texas / Oklahoma border. A train passed as I was getting set up to fly and I just missed it. It was a fun flight. Need to get some filters for little Sparky.

Nice shot.
Would be great to catch a train while filming!

Great shot!     

nice shot!
   

Thanks. This was a fun flight. I'll have to get the video edited and posted soon.

Did you know that Texas and Oklahoma almost fought a war over one of these RR bridges?  

Perhaps this very one!

I didn't know that. It wasn't over this bridge though, it was over a bridge to the east of this one. Probably a good thing for Oklahoma that it didn't become an all out war, because believe Texas would have wiped Oklahoma off the map and been forgotten. (I guess you can tell I'm from the south side of the river).

Wow .. very nice picture.

Nice shot.

Do you know why Texas doesn't drift out into the Gulf?.................................

Excellent shot.  Thought I'd check back and see if you ever succeeded in catching the train coming over the bridge.

Thank you. I have not. I need to put that on my to-do list.

LOL, no problem.  I just love drone videos featuring trains.  Have a great day.

Nice work!  A train would have made it perfect!

Cool bridge and nice shot.
