Freight running

#1

Post by Roger O »

My first attempt on YouTube. My layout is a small 10x8 OO gauge, based loosely on GWR and LMS but nowhere in particular. I don’t run to any rules because it my own creation as I see it, so I run locos from all regions and era As I want so there are steam and some modern diesel on there as the keen eyes will notice. It’s about 98% complete.
It’s a busy layout that started small and just grew to what I now have, a very cramped and busy layout.Please see the link below .

Brilliant Roger. You've certainly utilised the space well. R-
Young at heart. Slightly older in other parts.

That’s incredible what a lot in a small ish space. And well done for posting a video. Must have a go myself.

Thank you WTD. i was surprised how easy it was but I’ll not use my iPhone again as the camera isn’t good enough.

The camera is fine, as is the photography and photographer!

I'd suggest turning the camera through 90 degrees to get a wide screen image however.

That was really good for a first attempt Roger - certainly no improvements required, except as Ian mentioned - landscape rather than portrait - it was a crystal clear bit of filming. Like others - I will have to have a go - sometime! Barry

Thank for all your nice comments it might spur me on to build my second layout which I intended to do with the Grandchildren when we can all get together again. So it’s out with the ply and wood to build the baseboards.
