Classic Toy Train Videos
Posted by EIS2 on Sunday, November 15, 2009 9:21 AM

Has CTT ever considered producing classic toy train videos?  Kalmbach produced a series of videos promoting model railroading, but they had few O-Gauge entries and almost no toy train material.  Tom McComas puts out some excellent videos, but they have fallen to once a year and are starting to lean to high-rail. 

I would like to see CTT produce videos devoted to toy trains.  I believe there is sufficient market to justify the expense.  Since CTT is already in place at various layouts to take still shots for their magazine, they could take an HD video camera and record the layout at the same time.

I don't believe producing videos is in the cards for us, though we have chatted about some sort of compilation disc as a promo or something. I think that TM Books pretty well covers the field.
