High-Speed Rail

Speaking of the Twin Cities, if you follow this link and click on the video, you appear to get a high-speed trip along the new light rail line between St. Paul and Minneapolis.  It looks like the photographer was riding the front seat on an LRV and taking a time-lapse video.  That's nice.

But there's a catch: the line isn't in operation yet.  What he actually did is to walk the entire line with a camera and tripod, taking a still photo every 30 feet or so.  It took something like 11 hours.  What an incredible project!  I always find it somewhat reassuring to come across somebody who's crazier than I am.  Don't you?

Thanks to Dick Lukin for the pointer!
