From The Cab of 4908…

Hi Everyone,

Been a while and nothing really to report, but I did finally get to upload some video taken from Epping 2011 by a kindly gent who I can’t remember…Oops.

The first scene the camera is on RP25/110 wheels and you will see it bounce thru the points but the rest is on real wheels :).

I wonder how many of you knew the station building was on a curve?

Cheers

  1. Andrew,
    do you remember what type of camera was used. It gives a sharp clear picture but small enough to fit through the tunnel.

  2. Thanks Trainspotter,

    Hi Bob,

    I don't unfortunately, being at the show I didn't get much time to ask questions myself. I think the gent was from the Wallarawang exhibit which I think is part of the Guildford Model railway club so with anyluck he may see these pages and get in touch with us.

    Heres hoping.

  3. Hi Andrew,

    A 49 class bouncing down the rails in true branchline style. Yes, the curve was quite a surprise. I would never have guessed. Sorry about the anonymous profile, but this crazy system wont let me post if I tag it with my Google account.

  6. Thanks for the comments guys,
    The 49 has a tsunami EMD567 in it but I have another 49 which I need to do and I will put a Loksound in it I think.

  8. Hi Andrew,

    None of us from the Guildford Model Railway Group made this video, although we would like to claim we did!

    Cheers,
