Great job! That moose at the end -- the train seemed to drop its headlights and then bring them back up after passing the moose, do you think was intentional, a way to signal, or at least, not hypnotize the beastie?

Dropping the light was surely intentional. Headlights make wildlife 'freeze'.
At least this is what they tell us in Germany at driving school... ;-)

That's what I figured -- great timing!

nice and smooth video. i know its more on skills but can i ask your exact camera, gymbal and stick controller settings? cheers!

Wow this is awesome! I have to make it up to Alaska at some point. Thank you for sharing.

wow...really nice.  loved it. thanks for showing it.

Really enjoyed this video...think I spotted four if not five moose...I love trains and this was very well done...thank you..

Nice job! I'd laugh if the same conductor was on each train and wondered why a drone was flying around like a "black helicopter".

That's the beauty of the mavic, don't think they know I am there!

Wish we had more snow in the UK. Looks awesome

Nice view..

Nice shots. I live in Wasilla and it was nice to recognize some of the locations.

Cool! Eeeeee!

Very Nice Video. What drone are you flying and what camera are you using.

Amazing video thank you for memes sharing!

Haha. I know trains kill over 600 moose a lot ear in AK..I understand why, now.. sweet vid!

Nice job and thank you for sharing.

I have only one train shot so far... it is not easy to be in the air and ready to catch the train going by LOL

Yeah, tell me about it. I have had it go by while I was changing my batteries. Seems to never go by when I am ready for it.

I would give you them, but they were set back to default with a firmware update.

I believe the train turned off its light so the moose would not be blinded and stop on tracks

Sounds promising, keep at it

congrat very nice, but it must have taken you forever to get all those different shots, was it the same train?

You are right, this is about 4 separate days. More footage to come as long as weather is decent.

NICE,  Beautiful Country

Very nice !
Are there a lot of trains there or did the moose chose like that precise moment with the only train of the day to cross ?

They do the same thing with cars....totaled my car twice in the last 20 years, near misses countless times.

Great train compilation

Almost goosed the moose! Great place to shoot by the look of things.
