5/23/18 Another day closer

Well I try again to get past these stream freezes. I tried another stream in Edge and it froze after about an hour so that is not a route to go. I use Chrome as my primary program to do these daily streams and have had no problems in past years so we will see.

Some photographs of activities prior to the switching.

I'm checking occasionally and haven't seen the problem.

Anyone else see problems?

I am sure it has to do with the feed at my end. I have confirmed the router is not stopping. Maybe will try Opera.

I just came home to check before going to my next activity and its still running so will have shots of the movements in the yard. I have to amend this slightly, the depot cam had frozen while the tipple cams were still running.

487 is moving in the yard and, as of yet, does not have its tender number painted on.

The tourist and parlor cars are still parked in south yard.


That was fun to watch and will have video of those proceedings later. Right now headed out again and hoping the stream keeps running.

Hi All: No Web Cams open here in San Jose! The entire friends site is so slow to open that it's pitiful! Must be here on my end as I talked to John Cole in Antonito and he said no problem opening the site and cameras there. Oh well...Only in Silicon Valley!
