How NOT To Take Train Videos - CP Heritage Edition

I chased one of Canadian Pacific Railway's "heritage" locomotives, CP 7016, south of Winnipeg on the CP Emerson subdivision. In Niverville I set up to record the train rolling past the grain elevator. In my haste, I apparently forgot to secure all three legs of the tripod, and as the locomotive passed, over it went. I compounded the problem by not wiping the snow off the lens, so when I shot it again outside Otterburne, the lens was covered with water droplets. Professional work! I hope you get a chuckle out of this. I know I did when I did this foolishness!
