Watch as we follow military cargo train, X-173, at points across my layout, from shortyly after leaving the yard to arrviing at the base where it will be unloaded. getting the video footage took 3-4 hrs, had to take all the tanks and trucks and things from area's on the layout and rubberband them onto train cars, then find a good camera position, and then record n power up the train. but not everytime does the train just smoothly roll by, many times the train derailed or sputtered or stopeed from bad/dirty track area, so i'd have to pull train back and record again and try n fix the problem, weather it was cleaning tht area of track, or the engine wheels, or fixing a rough track connection. and not every area on the layout looks so clean and perfect w/ a back drop, once i find a good cam position, i will take details/backdrops from other area's of the layout n move them into the camera view to make it look as reilistic as possible. weather its adding tree's or bush/shrubage, or fixing up the/adding track ballast, or road gravel. and then it took another hour to put together the video, cutting each video down only to show the footage of train going by, transitions, effects, enhancing color, text, adding sounds from some real train video's of mine, and then its goes on here for all my subscribers and any other train entusiests, enjoy, if u enjoyed this one check out all of my video's.
