Franklin & South Manchester trackside video

[Erieman]

Okay boys and girls, here is one of three videos of George Sellios Franklin & South Manchester railroad shot from the trackside perspective while attending the recent 2016 EXPO in Danvers, Ma. I used a Mobius, HD Wide screen 1080P video camera mounted a flat car. The first video is with the camera in front of the engine. Video two will be the view from the rear of a train. special Thanks to George Sellios for letting me shoot his awesome layout and to Thom Driggers for doing all the video editing.  http://www.thomscustomtrains.com/videos.html     or    https://youtu.be/ioU1ANL9rJA  and https://youtu.be/_x_tirYQb1k

Due to technical difficulties and my lack of computer skill, I made an error. It is now corrected. Enjoy the video, my Friend.

Okay!

Great videos! It even caught me paying George cash.   With this technology in mini cameras everything can be seen in Hi-Def.

Okay,

There is a second video taken from the back of the train: https://youtu.be/_x_tirYQb1k

Frank,
          When are you going to George's to film more great videos? Perhaps you could be the next Allen Keller?  Good job on the vids.  Traveling to layouts and filming could be your next great thing!

Tom,
           Me too! ha.  It was nice to meet & get to know all you guys a bit.  Wish we had more time together.  Perhaps again in 18 months! 
                                                                                                                                                                                                             Thanx Thom...

Frank,


These are the best videos that I have ever seen for a model railroad.  Fantastic!!!!!! Can't say enough.

WoW!! Thanks Frank and Thom, just wonderful videos.  A lot has been said about the great structures on the F&SM and justifiably so, but these videos impressed me.  The trackwork is just outstanding.  The videos show a very SMOOOOTH run over the rails, no jitter or shakes, no bumps across joints.....just plain silk.  I've seen many "ride along" model railroad videos and they all suffer (not the video, but the railwork) from one ilk or another.

Thanks Andy.

It  was a pleasure to video George's layout and to watch him really smile when he saw it. While the video shows you areas not normally seen from the aisle or photographs, the video has found many areas unseen. It show the true mastery of George Sellios. We owe a lot to him.

Steven,

Glad you and Molly enjoyed the videos. They really show the true mastery of the builder - George Sellios.
