Re: R711 B76

Hi all,

I was running a bit late this morning and when I set up the video camera at little
river (with the R in the distance!) the auto-focus was confused by the sun reflecting
off the lens. By the time I fixed the problem, I got a rather mediocre shot but I
managed to salvage this video capture:

After my attempt to photograph R711 I moved on to Lara where I photographed The
Overland with a Steel Link BL (not enough time for a video :-( ). Was this running
late or was it something else? The RTA tour to Colac passed us at about 1110. The
train was X37 and a BRS. Here is a video capture of it:
