Finally, one of my personal favorites from last year is ready.
This video is about a freight train (nr 6691) that runs between Hallsberg en Mariestad and services 2 sites. (in this video one was closed for summer holiday).
I learned a valueable lesson this morning:
- It is very hard to predict the movement of a shunting train when you are not standing close to the engine. So I missed some shots while I was moving between locations.



The video is a bit longer than 'usual' but this is a good length for train movies with 'a lot' happening (if you ask me).

Great work, you are correct plenty to look at. The guy on front of the engine, is he controlling  it remotely ?

Thanks a lot.
Yes he is (at least while shunting).
That way, they only need one operator.
(because he can change the points too)

I have learned something new today, did´t know that they  were  remotly controlled.

Great captured,   especially like the drone sequences from "straight up" and the slow moving set.

Never too old to learn!
Yes, that was one of my favorites too.
Very hard to plan that kind of shot, so I must admit it was luck!
