The other day I shot a short video in the south of The Netherlands around a museum railway. (ZLSM)
They use (a.o.) steam engines to travel on their railway.
This one is a Swedish engine and while I was filming the train as it left, I noticed some fire that had started under the train.
As the grass was very dry, it got bigger in no time, so I had to shift my attention from flying to helping fight the fire.
Luckily we managed and nothing (really) bad happened!

You can see the fire behind the train as it passes the viaduct.

Hi, thanks for sharing your work and great experience during your flight with us. We're glad that the fire has been out before it spread further into the grass. Cheers!

They actually changed the rules for steam driving in dry times.

So now steam train are not allowed to be on road during dry season?

Exactly. I'm not sure about the exact criteria or how strict it will be, but that is what they told me.

Or they have to water the area beforehand.

Everything always looks so simple. But if you consider how much effort there is behind such a video, you will appreciate it even more! Thank you so much for sharing!

And it was all going so well   But now you can add the role of Fire-fighter to your C.V.

Pointless indeed.
If they switch the point (this one only works with a certain understanding of railroad terminology) system and take it to something pointless or with less points, I won't point my attention to pointing out my points to others this much anymore.
