I rode the "Snow Train" in Canada on a snowmobile trip once.

Very scenic and relaxing.

Thanks for train chasing and sharing the video.

Not sure what the "alps" was supposed to be but yeah...there is Insta360 footage in there as you could tell. I enjoy putting in some of that kind of footage. I think it often goes well with drone videos.

I just got one recently and really love it. I am working on a new video that has some footage in it that I will be releasing soon.

Sir:

That was one of the most enjoyable films I''ve watched in a long time!! As drone pilots, I think we are all train lovers at heart! You captured that magnificent iron horse (e.g.: train) about as good as it could be done! Bravo for that. The scenery in Alaska is so overwhelming, and beautiful. You captured that wonderfully as well. The editing and the added train sounds, whistles, chugging, all so melancholy. Still, I'd rather be in sunny Miami and watch it on my computer. I've been on many, many fishing trips to Bristol Bay (probably 10) and have also visited Talkeetna, Denai, etc. You live in a beautiful place (except for the mosquitos).

Thanks so much, although the insult to our state bird was a bit over the top LOL.

your state "bird" has bitten me on the *** numerous times when I sat over a log, and has driven me from fly fishing , OFF of the river for shelter in my car.

Once, in Denali as we got off the bus at Wonder Lake a young woman nearly in tears greeted the bus begging for anyone that had DEET spray for the mosquitos. They brought "Skin so Soft" as it had been going around that it was just fine for mosquitos and since they had that, they did not bring a head net. They were virtually trapped in their tent. The mosquitos there can be swarms. I've been in places where, in order to eat a meal, one must leave a head net on and lift it for a moment and put food into your mouth and immediately kill the mosquitos that got into the head net as you chew the food. They can, indeed, be horrible but even worse are the no-see-ums and black flies that bite and hurt. When they are bad...failure to have a head net is gruesome.
