Re: Audio

[AzureWolf]

Summit county OH is about 3 hours from Wright-Patterson AFB. Seems a long way to drive, and it's in the opposite direction from Area 51 so the train going through there wouldn't make sense.

There is a Ravenna Army Ammunition Plant in summit county, but I doubt that's relevant.

I can't find pictures of any box cars belonging to the air force, let alone one with a wheel on it. (I think there's a special name for the wheel on the door but I can't think of it.)

Has anyone made any progress with the spray painted numbers?

[agentasparagus]

Agreed. The audio is all military personnel, as in radio communications between the train and the base.

Is it just me or does it look like an orange object comes into the screen?

You mean like this? http://www.smh.com.au/ffximage/2005/10/20/cargocontainers_wideweb__430x286.jpg

We need to figure out the significance of a name in that location to tell us if it's the city or the AFB. Considering the AF logo on it I would assume it's for the AFB and not the city, but I could be wrong.

I decided to have a closer look at the audio in the trailer so here's a partial transcript (spoilered just in case):

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Groom Lake One, Wright-Pat (Wright-Patterson Air Force Base), say what is your ETA (estimated time of arrival), over. Wright-Pat, Groom Lake One Actual (commanding officer), cargo intact, ETA: On schedule. Copied, Groom Lake One, expect your... OH MY GOD! aaaaaAAAAAAAAHHHH!!

EDIT: Corrected some mistakes.

Yes, the callsign is missing, so please add to this if you han hear what they're saying.

Also, the mp3s, regular and somewhat de-noised with added silence between communications:

There's also a Hill Air Force Base directly next to Bonham, Utah. Which would be the closest Bonham to Area 51.

[Google map] That big grey space next to it is the AFB.

Edit: Some interesting [read kooky] info:
From http://www.uufoh.com/UUFOH_HillAFB.html

Quote:

Ogden ALC [Air Logistics Center] is part of Hill AFB, UT, which seems to have some kind of connection to Groom Lake.

And "Hill AFB link to Groom lake"

I found a connection to Air Force, but it is perhaps wrong time:

Quote:

During the Second World War, there was a training camp and an aviation school for the US Air Force in the vicinity of Bonham, as well as a prisoner-of-war camp for Germans and German soldiers. Parts of the camp can still be visited today.

Just a thought...

Ah, I see what you're saying. I was assuming the incrementation went like:

E1A E9999A E1B E9999B; E1K E1000K E6425K; E1Q E9999Q E1R E1999R

But you're right, it could easily be:

E1S E1T E9999S E9999T; E2A E2B E2C; E6J E6K E6425J E6425K

@RasGold haha, nice find
@rempas I cannot recognize what's in, but your gifs look kinda cool. I can watch them constantly, hehe

[rempas]

I've taken the shot's at the end of the trailer, Right after the picture of the kid and scaled them. It seems like the sequence is off. I've tried reaaranging the frames but I can't figure it out.

Regarding the word "Bonham" seen on the back of the train (See the pic here: http://forums.unfiction.com/forums/viewtopic.php?mode=attach&id=21084 )

Bonham Air Force Base was given to the Navy and renamed. "In 1964, the Pacific Missile Range Facility and Bonham was transferred to the Navy, becoming Pacific Missile Range Facility, Barking Sands."

This could also explain why their transporting stuff from the AFB. Except for the timeline, it's 16 years after the change in name that the train wrecks.
