Spirit of the Outback - Driver's Eye View - Alpha to Emerald Part 1

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
Once again I-ll have to come clean and admit this is a fake Driver-s Eye View created by reversing the footage taken from the back of the train, probably the best position for the camera as it was raining for much of the journey. For the first half hour of this video the scenery is typical of the Queensland outback, reasonably flat, with Eucalyptus and Gum trees dotted all over the reddish rock and sand landscape as far as the eye can see. The railway and Capricorn Highway follow a similar path all the way from Longreach to Rockhampton often running within sight of each other. In the second half of this video the railway starts to climb into the Drummond Ranges following the contours of the land to gain height without the need for major engineering structures. This is the most scenic and interesting section of the route. Filmed 31. 01. 2019 - Train operated by QueenslandRail

Great thanks tim, At 57-05 i observed a white car going backwards on the right of picture thru the tree's you would not get away with this trickery if the line was next to a busy motorway in peak hour, The longest straight rail line in the world is between adelaide and perth on the nullarbor plains 478 km or 297 miles thanks again for another wonderful vid take care cheer's bob.

Hey man, amazing video, would it be possible for me to use 5 min of this video in the background of one of my videos? I am planning to talk over said video. Nothing related to it, it's just relaxing to use this in the background: )

That's clever. I never would have noticed the reverse footage without you mentioning it. Still works. Btw, I like watching this kind of stuff when I can't sleep at night. It works well. Thank you for posting it.

That's why some part of the video was edited out so that the reverse road trains wouldn't be spotted. A lovely ride through Australia. This must be Queens land where the video was shot in. Looking forward to the next part.

What fascinates me is how sudden those hills are. It's flat flat flat until about 58 minutes and then BAM! Eroded mountain country. Like an arid Appalachia.

Driver-s view. Well, in Canada the driver is in the front locomotive, but I suppose if you are - down under- your driver may be in the rear car.

Ah, we're doing it this way then? I'll be watching for backward-hopping kangaroos. gniob, gniob(er. that's boing, boing written backards! LOL)

Backwards or forwards, simply spectacular journey, who cares if a stray kangaroo, car or human passes by, Thanks heaps Tim

Slow TV of a lesser-known track. Very mesmerizing, even if it is an admitted cheat (for a good reason. Thank you.

What camera do you use? And how do you manage to keep it recording for the length of what you covered?
