your videos are some of the best I have ever seen! How were you able to get so close to the trains and keep the entire train in focus? I loved the scenes where the train came around a corner and one by one a car would appear coming around a curve then fall in line with the cars ahead of it.
I would love to see a tour of your layout, do you have any plans to do one?
again, great video

Model Trains Video has the Hot Trains DVD for sale. But it's not rendered in 720p. But it does include a number of bonus extras: installing ballast, basic greenery, and advanced greenery. Something like another 1/2 hour of content.

The sound was post processed in while I was editing the video. In person, the layout doesn't sound like that!

Charlie,
Great video...I had purchased the DVD a couple of years ago, but I had never hung around for the credits. The video is very informative, but the credits are the most entertaining !

Too much fun
Charlie:
You seem to be having way too much fun making these most excellent videos. Yet I am aware that you have much more work to finish on the BC&SJ. So get back to work and get the penensula done so that I can start begging you for a visit and dare I say, a chance to operate the Polar Bear Express.. lol
Most excellent video.. your love of the hobbie shows .. You are an inspiration .... Keep it up
Hey to Horrace..
