Photos and Video, 57312 and 57305, Old Hill 18/12/17

Now the new pc is set up and working it might be possible to get back into a routine of adding posts with photos to this blog, after uploading to the galleries of course. I might mess up a few posts or forget things, but it’s easy to change them.

The Northern Belle empty stock was up the Dark Side today, hauled by 57312 with 57305 at the rear, running as 5Z38 from the SVR to Birmingham International. Fortunately the s/b unit cleared in plenty of time.

A new computer!

Editing and processing 4K videos proved to be a struggle for my computer, but after 3 years without any problems, perhaps the time had come to get a new one! My previous computer lasted longer – but I did have disc problems and had to change them a couple of times. The new one has an Intel i5 cpu and seems to cope without any problems.

It has taken a couple of weeks to copy files across and install the software I need, perhaps I’ll keep this one a bit tidier than the previous one and keep files and folders more organised. I’ve noticed my external hard drives work much faster with USB 3 sockets than the old USB 2 ones.
