A rail journey to Montrose Scotland (Longplay)
A rail journey on a Class 170 train from Edinburgh to Montrose, Scotland, United Kingdom, via both Forth and Tay Rail bridges, I am Andrew, and my mate is Satwant.
While the camera man was awake and the max file size 4gb in Fat32 SD card was consumed in only 15 minutes at 1920 x 1080 @ 60fps the max size that the Go-Pro camera takes is 32GB Fat32 MicroSD card, which leaves 29GB for storage, so a maximum of seven 4GB files could be stored!
First it was in MP4 format, all I could do is watch it, all 15 segments (46GB) took 15 hours to convert to AVI and I reduced the video to 960 x 540 @ 29.97fps with WinFF, now all 15 segments are down to (7GB)
then I Joined all files into a single file with VirtualDub-1.9.9 and compressed the video with Xvid codec and sound from 48,000 khz 64KB per second to 48,000 khz 6KB per second MP3 in around 20 minutes the final size is down to (1.16GB AVI from 46GB MP4 ) and it still looks and sounds good!
WinFF 1.5.5 (free)
VirtualDub-1.9.9 (free) VirtualDub-1.10.4 is the latest version, looks like I need to update again!
Xvid Codec (free) for encoding and decoding videos (lossless).

Old Photographs Of Montrose Angus Scotland
Tour Scotland wee video of old photographs of Montrose, Scottish Gaelic: Monadh Rois, a coastal resort town and former royal burgh in Angus. It is situated 38 miles North of Dundee between the mouths of the North and South Esk rivers. It is the northernmost coastal town in Angus and developed at a natural harbour that traded in skins, hides and cured salmon in medieval times. It is known that golf has been played on the links of Montrose for more than four hundred and fifty years making it one of the very earliest and important venues in the history of the Royal and Ancient game. It was not until 1810, however, that the golfers of Montrose formed themselves into a club. Panmure Barracks was built in Montrose in 1779 and was originally an asylum. It became a Barracks for the Angus and Mearns Militia in the midle of the 19th century. It was demolished between the World War I and World War 2. and the area has subsequently been built over. A cannon was found on the site in 1992, built into a World War I gun emplacement. Montrose New Bridge was completed to the design of Sir E wen Williams in 1930, replacing an earlier suspension bridge. Sir Evan Owen Williams, born 20 March 1890, died 23 May 1969, was a British engineer and architect. Williams born at 16 Caroline Terrace in Tottenham, London, England, on 20 March 1890. He was the son of Evan Owen Williams, a Welsh-born grocer and Mary Roberts. Originally both farmers, they both moved to London some years before Owen was born. Williams had two sisters and two brothers. Mary Kate, died young, but the second born, Elizabeth Maud, became an author. Owen had an older brother, Robert Osian, who was a successful banker and came out of retirement to manage the finances of his brother's engineering practice which was launched in 1940. The final chapter of the ill fated 1715 Jacobite rebellion was played out in Montrose. Towards the end of the uprising, which had lasted nearly six months, from September 1715 to February 1716, James Francis Edward Stuart, the Old Pretender; formerly James, Prince of Wales, arrived in Montrose, where he spent his last night in Scotland, on 4 February 1716. He sailed from Montrose to exile in France. The town was held for his son, Charles Edward Stuart, Bonnie Prince Charlie; the Young Pretender, 30 years later and in February 1746 the largest naval battle of the war was fought in Montrose Harbour. Before World War I the Royal Flying Corps established a base at Montrose, later RAF Montrose,. On 26 February 1913, it became the first operational military aerodrome to be established in the United Kingdom. During World War II Montrose became a hub for a constant stream of international pilots from all over the Commonwealth, Poland, Czechoslovakia, America, Russia, France and other allied nations. As well as a training base Montrose was also an operational airfield for Hawker Hurricane and Supermarine Spitfire squadrons, which flew sorties over Norway and were a part of the air defences for Edinburgh. Scurdie Ness Lighthouse is located on the headland and has also been referred to as Montroseness Lighthouse.

LIFElabs in collaboration with Winning Scotland Foundation
On 16th July 2018, three members of the LIFElabs team travelled to Scotland to launch our latest initiative whilst participating with our brilliant brand ambassador, Scottish European Tour professional golfer, Scott Jamieson, who took part in the event ahead of his appearance at The Open Championship.
Luke Chittock, CEO, David Pugh-Jones, Global VP of Brand, and Hannah McNamara, Marketing and Communications Executive all made the journey north to Montrose on the east coast of Scotland, to ensure the smooth running of the event which took place at the historic Montrose Golf Links Course, the fifth oldest golf course in the world.
The charity nominated six young, aspiring golfers who played some of the holes of the course while receiving a real-time coaching clinic from Scott.
It was incredible and heart-warming to see the children become more confident as the day progressed. This is a clear testament to the efforts LIFE are making in changing people’s lives for good.
