Train Bell Melody

Three hundred diesel engines play a mesmerizing melody on fifteen bells. Who says trains can't be reliable! This video took twelve days to make. Music written with MuseScore 4, which has some great tubular bell sounds. Modeled and animated in Blender and rendered with Eevee in 16.5 hours. One of the trains is late; can you find it?

Outro music "Overlook" by EmCee

The sound effect of the trains is from a diesel engine I got to operate at a tractor fair. It was awesome.

Props to the camera man for using a jetpack to hover in the air despite not knowing how to control it

This song has a Crash Bandicoot OST sort of vibe to me. Nice tune. Thanks for sharing it with us.

This would have been even more awesome if they were all pulling flatcars with boxcars spaced that would hit the bells

Im speaking for every train fan here these are our dreams

really interesting work with the camera here. shakes like it's being held by a person but it's obviously a simulated 3D environment, so it kinda reads like it's a flattened VR screen recording?
