Описание: Oct 21, 2024
To start, a lot of things pissed me off in this video with the truck block being the biggest.. The train was a rare 3 locomotive run + a full use of the Nimbus Rd crossing is something I can't get like this video and of course, no trucks anytime I'm standing here but the critical moment of filming the freight train like right in the dot as if fate ment for me to get pissed off.

So of course, the day the freight train is a RARE triple header so they would have to use the whole length of the Nimbus Rd crossing to run-around and even pulled a little further east than usual even for 3 units, its the day and time a truvk HAD TO BLOCK MY VIEW OF THIS ONLY CHANCE!! I stood here for nearly for an hour and NO TRUCKS TILL I NEED TO FILM AND NOW ITS TIME FOR TRUCKS, I HATE TIMING SO MUCH IN THIS ERA! This coursed timing thing always happens to me. I can be somewhere that isn't a truck route and that'll be the time I film a train and a "lost truck driver" coming down the route woulf be timed to block my view. I have this repeated bad timing fate of this era. Now I don't know when will it be the next time a triple header comes through to refilm this.

About the 2020s, The 2020s been the most annoying and stupid and negative years. Espcially 2024. Everything is an arguement. My railfanning experience despite filming locations and crossings I haven't before, railfanning in the 2020 still not as enjoyable as it was post 2018 very especially post 2020 a steep downhill experience. Even no railfanning personal life, the 2020s SUCK. Everything is a F*cking sh*tsh0w. Whole railfanning always on the lookout for a problem, as*holes everywhere you can't avoid. Always have some problem this era, people paroanoid always things someone trying to do something to them, I occasionally get into arguements to get these videos for you guys just because people are so stupid in this era just because they see a camera. To add, railroad crews of this era really don't like railfans. Timing acts as if I have invisable force following me to make sure timing is terrible everytime which I never had before and its been big this year. When something good happens, a terrible thing would happen at the exact same time to wash out the goodness I'm so sick of it. The trucks timed to block me is just the tip of the ice burg
