I love it when a plan finally falls into place! If you’ve caught my last few posts, you’ll recall that I’ve talked about issues I had a couple days ago when I was trying to get shots of Ft. Campbell Rail picking up military loads from the Ft. Campbell Wye after BNSF brought their equipment north on the CSX Henderson Subdivision. Well, today everything fell into place from my perspective as you can see in the attached photo. Train was where I wanted it, light was perfect, and I had great clouds!!
Here we have United States Army units USAX 6520, 6519 and 1871 headed from the Hopkinsville, KY on August 11th, 2021, as the train passes over the Rock Bridge Branch bridge, just south of Lovers Lane overpass.
This is another follow-up to my post yesterday where I discussed that my gear that just didn’t want to co-operate! Well today, I used my iPhone 11pro instead of the iPhone 6s that I normally keep on my drone controller, and I didn’t have any overheating problems at all and was able to fly normally. I guess the newer iPhones do a better job with the heat that the older ones as with the 11 I didn’t get any warnings at all during the flights, and it was much hotter than the other day.
