 | VIA 692 in Winnipeg 2012/01/28 (43 seconds)
I caught VIA 692 (formerly called the Hudson Bay) rolling into Winnipeg today. VIA 6455 and 6405 were the engines on the train.
As you can hear on the video, it was very windy and the force of the train blasting past moved the tripod head. My tripod is a bit broken and doesn't hold its position very well any more. :P |
