John I don't have a one track mind. It depends on the turn-out. "I love your catenary!" Is that a power-trip or just another pick-up line?

"The Layer of Ozone made by a fleet of Powertorques". [:D]
Great stuff! All of your vids are excellent!
What kind of camera are you using, and how is it mounted? I built a cam car by installing a color spycam into the cab of a LL GP38, but it's not as clear as that.
One of these days I'll get off my duff and make a coupla more vids meself...

Thanks G-I-C.-- Foremost-- i am glad that everyone is enjoying the videos as that was my whole intent. It seems to have been a forum boost which many have said there were not enough tyco talk lately-Well-----. My layout is not complete but iam able to run "dem" tyco trains!!! as well as my newer locos. The camera=CANON POWERSHOT A 400 3.2 mega pixel with a 128 sd card. It is a digital picture camera (has zoom also)with a video mode. It has a macro feature which clears the image on close ups and it is in the on mode when shooting the trains. I myself was amazed at the video clarity. The camera car is a Great Northern TYCO flat (of course!!). The camera sits perfect on it. The car is equipped with kadee#5 couplers that are body mounted and original tyco trucks with proto 2000 33" wheels. I have a sony camcorder but they are working on compatible software for windows vista-so it is useless at this time as i can not download train video from it to my computer until they release software upgrade. I edit video with windows movie maker-A big thanks to Dacheez for helping me out on that.Edited by - Brianstyco on March 26 2007 2:57:16 PM
