Gear Guard captured video of Gen2 R1S loading onto train for delivery

Was setting up the Drive Cam and noticed Gear Guard captured a video of our R1S being loaded onto the train for delivery.




Also, bonus picture of the very precise pool noodle alignment tool.

definitely felt some puckering as he drove so fast across those gaps between the train cars.

I'm sure I'm not the only Gen 1 owner admiring the quality of the camera

I know people complain about the camera quality but it is fine for what I use it for. Someone got in my R1S the other day for the first time and comments how amazing the cameras were.

That's cool!

Thought it was the Auto Train in the NE at first.

That's super cool! As an interesting data point, did you look at the date on that recording? How long between when it was loaded on a train and when you picked it up?

July 12th so about a month! Picked on on August 10th.

Now we have an idea where some of those in transit scratches might be coming from.

The wide-angle, low-to-the-ground camera makes it feel faster than it really is; but yeah, absolutely pucker-inducing.

Is that a Canadian National Railway car? ?

tooo cool!!! It doesn't look like they have enough room to get out of the vehicle.. I wonder how they get out.

Very interesting. I assume these are from internal storage, unless it somehow shipped with an external drive attached. Also surprised it wasn’t wiped pre-delivery.
