*disclaimer* there is some language in this song, but I’d rather use a song that has cuss words compared to the song with half of it cut out because of it :lol: :shock:

There will be a full version of the pacing of the race sometime in the future (alongside a trip report for this 26 hour railfanning day)…it was between NS 14Q and NS 28B back on Friday evening just east of Butler, Indiana. Thought I could make the footage work cinematically, really wished I had some sort of lighting for the last few pacing shots. Tried to make it look like a music video just for funzies just to get the footage out. My inspiration for this video was Chasse Gibson’s cinematic short “Squeaky Clean” that he posted on his channel awhile ago and I have been wanting to make my own take on it since I saw it. Enjoy!
