Cab Ride videos

Unread post by Old Hogger »

I had the layout cleaned up for an op session today, so thought I'd do some cab ride type videos.

Riding a train on the portion of the mainline with scenery

Sorry about the poor sound, I need a better camera

Awesome, Hogger! Have your layouts ever been in Model Railroader or another publication? Do you plan your layout on paper before building it?
PatC created a monster, 'cause nobody wants to see Don Simon no more they want AARR I'm chopped liver, well if you want AARR this is what I'll give ya, bad humor mixed with irrelevant info that'll make you roll your eyes quicker than a ~Z~ banhammer...

Thanks. My previous layout (Clinch Valley) was in the Sept 2009 issue of MR in Tony Koesters column. I just give a rough idea of what I want to do on paper (cad program actually). Changes all the time as I build, but I think most layouts do that.

Hot Wheels Video Racer. But I think there are point/shoot cameras out there today that are much better. The sound on my camera is terrible.

Funny you should post those, I JUST uploaded this even though its not a cab ride.

There are a handful of Clinch Valley hoppers floating around our layout in stone service.
