SP Trains #1462 CP843 @ Sorenson Street, Matsqui, BC

I was looking for a spot to settle down at, to document trains for the day. I stopped along Beaton Road, just east of Sorenson Street and caught Canadian Pacific Train 843 with its loads of Crowsnest coal headed for the Roberts Bank Coal Port. CP8840 and CP9722 are up front, with CP8771 in the middle and CP8813 on the rear. The grade crossing is Sorenson Street, Mile 88.66 of the Canadian National Yale Subdivision.

Recorded with a Canon XA55 4KHD Pro video camera at 1920x1080 resolution. For outdoor shooting, it is equipped with an Azden SMX-10 High-Performance Stereo Condenser Microphone mounted inside a Rode Blimp Windshield on a Rycote Shock Mount Suspension System. A Neewer NW74K 7-Inch 1920x1080 Field Monitor is also used . All equipment is then mounted on a custom bar attached to a Canadian Studio Pro Heavy Duty 72" Tripod with an EI-717 Fluid Pan Head.
Other equipment used in videography are a Canon XA10 Pro HD, a Canon SX60HS HD, a Sony HDR-CX110 HD, a Sony HDR-AZ1 HD, a Nikon AW110 HD, and a Viofo A119 HD. Occasionally, an iPhone 11 Pro HD camera mounted on a Zhyiun Smooth 4 powered gimbal is also used.

N.B.The photographer and cameras did not encroach on the railway right-of-way in taking this video. It is dangerous, foolhardy (and illegal) to enter on railway rights-of-way. Just sayin' ... "You don't stand on a runway to watch airplanes."

Skeena Pacific is a supporter of the Operation Lifesaver Canada. Operation Lifesaver (OL) is dedicated to preventing collisions at railway crossings and railway trespassing incidents in Canada. They believe the key to achieving this goal is public education. Operation Lifesaver in Canada is funded by the Railway Association of Canada and Transport Canada, working with the rail industry, governments, law enforcement, labour groups, the media, and other organizations and communities from coast to coast to increase awareness about rail safety—because rail safety is a shared responsibility. https://www.operationlifesaver.ca/
