Model Railroading > HO scale locomotive camerasDate: 03/13/17 23:55 HO scale locomotive cameras Author: bath_wildcat I am wondering if any of you here have ever filmed yours or someone elses layout with some kind of mini camera. I am planning on taking my modeling a bit further with this as I know a group in Sandusky, Ohio that had a pretty good layout. I want to provide them with a video of the layout from the perspective of either on a flatcar, or from the locomotive itself. Something these guys could play when visitors are around.
Even if you have done something like this-please post up. I would like to see those. Michael Fair Royal Oak, MI Date: 03/14/17 04:18 Re: HO scale locomotive cameras Author: Bob3985 One of our members created a camera car with a boxcar and we took footage of our layout to use for the ad for our annual train show.
Here is what we used just to give you an idea. I think we need to work on a straight video of the layout for display and promotion. Bob Krieger Cheyenne, WY Edited 1 time(s).

Takes a little bit of editing, since if you have tunnels it won't go through unless it is on its side. Takes a great video.
