Opening of the High Line on the LCNGRR

Hi all

As I noted in my Bachmann Mogul bash topic in the modelling section, I haven’t had too much time to do stuff on the garden railway, but I did finally get the first section of the High Line open recently and with the new Mogul plus the trusty Porter, put together a video of putting a train together and a run up the line.

It can be found here http://youtu.be/ntTcHAsLktU. I put in some sounds from my own recordings, so hope it doesn’t come across too corny.

Hope you enjoy the ride!

Cheers
Tony

Tony - Great job syncing the sound. Very believable. And the train / layout looks good too!

#6

I like the way you have the sound so you hear the engine really “working” up the hill and over the trestle. Nice looking layout.

I like the way you got the sounds to work with the loco and your layout looks very nice
The mogul turn out nice also

Thanks everyone for the nice comments. I really enjoyed both the filming and editing of it and I know its not a blockbuster by any means, but its fired me up to get stuck into the railroad a lot more. I feel some structures coming up soon.

Cheers

Great video on a great looking railroad! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for the comments guys. I was hanging out the washing on Saturday and put a train on for a distraction from the tedious chore. That led to another train being brought out and I noticed that the sun was catching the trains nicely when the crossed over the trestle bridge so got a few shots of the new mogul. Not sure which one is the best, so here they all are!

I think the first or second one is better from the lower down angle. The railroad is in the shade most of the time as there is a big Golden Rain tree that overhangs it, which, while great in summer, is a bugger for taking decent pics. Will have to get some more of the other locos now. Cheers Tony
