GoPro Camera Video - Track Level View

Mr. Frank, that was fantastic I mean I really enjoyed it.  What a great layout 

Very nice layout.  Thanks for posting!  

Wow!!, I really enjoyed watching all that beautiful O scale 2 rail equipment, even if I didn’t spot any ACL rolling stock.

Looking forward to the next video. Good job.

Dear Frank,

Which model GoPro did you use?

Thank you. John

What a nice video - Your scenery is excellent, especially the ground cover and the bare trees. Also like the vast assortment of vehicles you guys have there. Would love to see a few minutes of the PRR T1 in action...

Very nice - trains and Land of the Giants too!

Hi Frank,

The video is great, I really like that perspective on a wonderfully detailed layout such as this one. I took it upon myself to watch the other vids and besides the request for slightly longer videos, I wanted to ask how did you all make your cornfields?

Dave

Absolutely beautiful!  

All we need now are locomotive simulators at home so we can sit in the cab and run those locomotives as we watch the video from the 1/48 scale right hand cab seat. 

Thoroughly enjoyed that! 

Fantastic video and so relaxing. Honestly, this layout is more a show-off of an incredible collection of automobiles. Trains seems to be an after thought.... :-)

agreed very nice video, thank you

Thanks for sharing!  Enjoyed the video and would enjoy reading more about the design and construction of the layout.  If you have a club website, maybe you could post a link.  Thanks again, and happy railroading!

For more videos and pictures of the ROS layout, please visit our facebook page "Rockford O Scalers".  ROS is not really a club, at least not in the traditional sense.  No dues, no set rules, no political BS.  It is just 3 or 4 modelers (currently Frank, Tom and me) who have a common passion and get along well with each other.  

In 1993, a group O scalers got together and constructed several O scale modules to display at the local trains shows two or three times a year.  Those modules still form the heart and soul of the current layout.  I "joined" the group in the mid to late 90's.  As we began to get older in the mid 2000's, (and the modules got heavier!), I became one of the luckiest model railroader ever and the modules were moved semi-permanently into my basement.  In theory, most of the layout is movable but hopefully that won't happen for many years to come.    

If you are ever in the Rockford Illinois area, we love to have visitors.  

Love the video. Where did you get the wig-wag signals at the first grade crossing? Do they work?

Where did all the giants come from?  Are they friendly?  Have they ever attacked the trains?  Have you notified Starfleet Command?

Even with the giants, it was a fun ride!!!

Is the inner loop connected to the outer loop?  Some great modeling there.

Have fun and stay safe.

Quite nice.  Looking forward to seeing the sequel.

Nice video! I think the camera angle is about right. I do agree: Seeing some on coming traffic would liven things up a bit. The "giants" comment is valid as well. I would caution others around you that the train is recording sound as well as video. I found some of the background vocals a bit distracting. 

Where did you get your backdrops? They are very nice, and pretty much what I've been looking for. How do you have them attached to the walls?

Keep up the excellent work!
