Well-done. CSX could use your video as a advertising/marketing tool 8)

Very nice video. Few minor things. K682 is a loaded ethanol train and the cranes at North Baltimore run on regular rail.

Very well done. How much of the container traffic is actually just transferred train to train there and not put on the road at all?

Drayton,

Did you get any flack from security or did you go unnoticed? If it were me I know I would be afraid of loosing the drone due too mechanical problems or something in the middle of the yard with no hope of recovery.

BTW love the arial shots keep em coming. Ever been to Willard Yard yet? I would love to see some arial footage of that place or even Bellvue now that it has been expanded. I know a few places where you can get close.

It went unnoticed. I wasn't afraid of flying it over the yard because of all the safety features the Phantom drones come with.

I fixed the narration, just for you, and re-uploaded the darn video. :roll:

Drayton, narrow looks so much better than wide. Very little distortion compared to the older stuff.

Thanks, JT. I appreciate it. I'm trying to get better with the drone. It's just hard, because the Phantom has pretty crappy 1080P.
