GREAT BOB.  But who was running right to left in the first third of video?  Might have to recruit him for DA BEARS?

OOPS, You saw that. It was me running to shut the dryer off. It was buzzing and I didn't know if the camera would pick it up.

Yes I had the camera on a flatcar.

I tried another video yesterday but flubbed it up bigtime. I'll try again when I get the time.

Thanks again for all the coments.

Wow, very nice video!  That Big Boy rolling through was very nice.  You layout looks great and the video was very well done.

 *edit*Did your camera take a ride on a flat bed car, or what?  Because the footage was very  very steady.*/edit*

BTW, here's my first video, not nearly as inspiring in terms of scenery, but I think its fun.

Really nice Bob,

Pretty much what I 'll be going for when it comes time for scenic. Mixing postwar with some nice hi-rail scenery. I really like the gateman in that environment!!

Thanks, John

I know AT LEAST two!

Bob - You offically rock. Tubular track, a #60 Trolley, an 11'-9" tall gateman - it's all good.

Great video - nice layout, even nicer choice of track!
