A very nice video and layout. I have plans to expand my own HO scale layout (and run Pennsy locomotives), though as I am somewhat limited in terms of space, I don't believe mine will be quite as large as this.
Actually I thought the loco speed was just fine; you see some of these videos and they're molasses slow. My heartburn is two things - the inset video popping in and out and the jerky/halting action. I'm guessing the camera was on a flat car being pushed in front of the loco right? There has to be someway to remedy this without building a special self-powered camera loco - stabilization in the camera?
It was a flat car being pushed with a camera. I am not a professional cinematographer. so give me a break.. let me know when you have built an HO size steady cam system...... LOL. with good criticism comes recommendations to do better or different. you don't like the inset video but you offer no alternative. The concept was to show the train from 2 angles. I did not have a 2 camera set up so I relied on running twice and then "matching" up the video. What would you have done??
If I were there, I couldn't get enough of it!

Loco speed or video speed.....its 27 minutes long. Wanted to cover the whole layout and not bore you.
