Hotwheels Video Cam Racer. Costs about $25 on Ebay, complete. The mini cam downloads to
a computer. Holds ten minutes of video and sound. A little tweaking in the You Tube Creator
studio, and voila, you have a video you can download to The Tyco Forum.

Rec'd this reply on another HO forum:
Even easier and better quality, just use this <a href="http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?campid=5337202176&customid=MTF&toolid=10001&mpre=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.ebay.com%2Fitm%2F808-16-Keychain-Camera-V3-with-D-Lens-Cable-4GB-SD-Card-Included-%2F292131078243%3Fhash%3Ditem44045e8063%3Ag%3AmgIAAOSwXeJXdU8X" target="_blank">808 #16 Keyfob Camera</a>, $32.99 shipped from a US seller. You get 720P video quality and you can put it in a host of locations, perched on your locomotive, tender, caboose, or rolling stock.
I will probably be looking into this. If anyone wants any kind of kick start on how to use
the Creator Studio on You Tube, you know where to find me.

That picture of the Hot Wheels camera on the flat car gives a nice perspective of its size in relation to HO train stuff. That's good to see. Thanks.
For some time, I've been enjoying your videos shot through this camera.
Carpe Manana!

Thanks for letting me know. I will go and try to fix that. The link was to
this better version of the mini camera that takes much better quality
images than the HW product.

Picked up these Tyco Fluorescent poles with the clip on the track bottoms. I have one unopened blister pack of these and haven't saw many over my 17 years on Ebay...
