All 7.5 hours of the ride. The results are stunning and hypnotic. Reminds me a lot of the Norwegian film about a retiring train conductor, O’Horten, that I projected at Telluride a couple years ago. Below is a 10-minute clip of the trip, but you can download the entire thing here.

Different views of Philly. I threw together a whole set of scenics here.

And from the highway (no, I probably shouldn’t be taking photos while driving in traffic, but…):
