Likes fixed camera views
Author: not a PTZ camera fan

One place in the west where I occasionally get my virtual train watching fix uses the PTZ system.

I often have to leave because the operator zooms in on something whimsical like the numberboards then leaves it "zoomed" in. Makes me sick to watch so I leave.

Other times, the operator pans the lead engine and it becomes out of focus and blurry. The operator then logs off and the camera focus remains blurry until another operator logs on to fix it.

Fixed cameras work better and you don't have some nut trying to zoom on on a rusty hopper or some sort of airplane flying in the distance.
