I would gladly have posted the image for you except its kinda hard being video. This last one was really cool. I had to pause it, as the camera is panning to the first half of the train backing onto the helper, then shows the brakeman hooking up the air hose. The train had a string of tank cars up front, and pipe later behind that.
If I ever get the stuff to the printer for the covers and boxes we will get some of these ready to go. Had a couple of friends over to see the DVD since I am also working on some N&W. They were impressed at how decent the stuff looked considering it was 8mm and nearly 50 years old. My friend reminded me that Dad never used a light meter either, so he did well all things considered, and we can forgive those shots that are a wee bit too light or too dark. He was doing it as an after thought, since his main goal was the enjoy seeing the stuff. Photography was secondary.
Cheers,
Greg
