Animated Map

[Roger B]

This is a typical train video  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OK7UcDVOJ8Q&t=5s

But there is no map visible? Just place names and the speed limit.

That's right.  That's where the fun begins, you run the video on one screen with RouteConverter on the other and as the video progresses you mark the points on the map, and enter the elapsed time to the points list.  You need to stop the video to do this, and it helps if you can skip back and forth a frame at a time.

The points would typically be bridges, stations, tunnels and so on.  I've counted overhead gantries to get a fix, but that only works on electrified lines.

Using Google Earth as the map you certainly appreciate the work done during the war by the people who interpreted aerial photographs!
