Erich,
Thanks, that was really neat. I did notice some editing FX and the models were great. This is Art.
My home is within 20 miles of the "curve" and I've only been there a couple of times.
The historical society used to have a live web cam that would allow you to operate the angle of the cam.
I have a part of my layout that I think of as the "Curve" with a Mantua Alco C430 in PRR to represent the Geep that sits there now.

Astounding modelling. I thought it was a club layout, but it appears to be a private modeler. He says he changes his prototype every year! Right now he's into the N&W.

You see that the backgrounds with mountains and trees are real from another video?
The trains and track are still art.

I think he made the backgrund by "blue screen" and used other tricks of the film makers.
they guy must be involved in video bussines . also think he is modeling only for films and there is no large layout. but i like the way the engines move! Sound seems to be also real! - Erich

The backdrops do move unnaturally at times, and sometimes it looks like there's a 2 mile dropoff to the side of the ROW, but overall the effect is great. I didn't realize that all of the backgrounds are green-screened until I watched the N&W winter scene til the end and saw Catzilla in front of it. He could make his own Japanese monster movie.
