Chasing the future?
Sometimes it's hard to choose an era to play with on any given day.

Chasing the future in a starship equipped with a J drive? Seems to me that we don't have to chase the future. It'll get here before we're really ready for it.
More seriously; very nicely done. Unfortunately I blinked and missed the HSR set...
[For those unfamiliar, the J drive permits the craft in which it's installed to travel back in time in a controlled manner. It does not work in the fast forward (from the present) mode.]

The only thing I'll nit-pick about that video is the sound of the horn on the Trainmaster. It sounds like a large single trumpet horn.
CP Trainmasters would have had the Air Chime M3H three chime horn, which is tuned to a D minor chord. The M3H was pretty much the standard horn on CN and CP diesels that were purchased in the 1950s.
The sound chip manufacturers probably don't have a recording of a Canadian diesel horn.
A good video to me. And I have no clue what the sounds should be so they sounded just fine to me. When I heard the diesel engine, horn sound I just accepted them for what they are.
Now if the diesel sound was with the steam I would know that was incorrect.

Reminds me of a line, probably Groucho Marx, " If there's anything I can't stand it's a man who blows his own horn!". Nice video.
