After the trip to Whittaker the D&GVR gave participants to railfan weekend a free ride on the Durbin Rocket with Moore-Keppel & Co. #3 including photo runbys. What a nice treat! Unlike the other railfan weekend videos I decided to post all the footage for this run instead of choosing the best runby from each train. One note is that I have never seen number three slip like at this even before! I have my suspicious but I wish not to state them here...
Shots 1 & 2: The Durbin Rocket thunders into Hevener Station and in the second shot slips like crazy. I tried to zoom into the slip, but was too late. Sorry for that!
Shot 3 & 4: Old number three rounds the curve near the tiny town of Nottingham passing by a remote house we all know and love. Once again I must apologize, but this time for the wind sound. Take note of the scraping noise in the 4th shot, I have no idea what this is.
Shot 3: To everyone's surprise two deer jump in front of the rocket right before she stops to take on water at Elk Creek. Oh Dear! If only we were a few seconds ahead of schedule we could have had some nice venison for dinner at Durbin!
Shot 5: To everyone's surprise two skittish deer jump in front of the Durbin Rocket right before she comes to a stop at Elk Creek. Oh Dear!
Shot 6: I grabbed this shot to catch the piston and flywheel spinning if she slipped getting back up again after filling up with water. Of course it didn't happen and then happened in the next shot!
Shot 7: Moore-Keppel & Co. #3 performs the last runby of the weekend giving us a happy tune from her whistle as she passes the photo line.
I know this isn't the last Railfan Weekend 2015 but it is the last shot so I will give my thank you on this video and the last video put out.
I would like to thank Big Jim Productions, Grady Smith and Casshews members from the cinder car for making this event more special to me than it was already out to be. Hope to see you all again!
But nobody reads the description!
