Same video, shot with different camera, different lighting, different angles,
different editing to see what might be improved. I think overall the
cropping and the clarity is better using this Pixel XL.

Very nice Jeff. Another view of your video.
Has a nice intro. And a nice backdrop.

The look of British steam from that period is appealing.

I agree, SWF, those locomotives were designed not very long after
the introduction of the Rocket and then the Planet, and form the
modern look of the era. I love how they took a functional piece of
machinery and painted it these rich colors with pin striping and
the enormous fenders. The drive wheels were designed for
speed, not torque, and were as tall as 7 feet. I did hear that
they did have traction issues on start up, with longer trains,
sand being routinely needed. Mostly these speed demons
ran on the flat lands, adjacent canals and rivers.

Which brings to mins that those canals have long been an interest but I've not attempted a shelf layout featuring working boats and locks.
Actually, no canal layout at all has been attempted!
But there is a fantasy about a garden railway with a canal feature were I to have a home with a yard ... and the health & income to make use of it.

Ooooh, garden layout with a canal. That would be something! A few
gold fish?
