Great little film.  The trains seem really massive and the sharp curves don't seem out of place at all.

I also liked the film.  I was able to spot a second shooter on the grassy knoll!

I'm seriously thinking about building this little layout!  Looks like a lot of fun!

... Plus the layout is wired and #3 runs nicely: Not a valid vimeo URL

That is slick.

This video made me excited to realize there's a Vimeo app on the Apple TV.

I loved the video, reminded me of the intro to Pixar's UP.

All of the building construction is complete on the TTC.



Still plenty to do: painting, detailing, etc., etc. but the heavy lifting is all done.

That last photo with the slope reminds me of this one I've dipped down many times:
http://binged.it/1r8sGle
First track to the right is the old Erie mainline where it would swing over and interchange with the P&LE so passengers could get from Cleveland to Pittsburgh. One train was called the Morning Steel.

The Erie just dipped under that same bridge here:

The buildings are Pollock, they built hot metal cars.

Off to study the rest of the photos... :D

Roaming around the old ROWs in the first picture -- is that coal trestle you modeled for your other layout?
It's packed around with semi trailers.

I love how a ridiculously tiny layout, when built well and, equally importantly, photographed well, can look huge and amazing.

OOps, this question was for Chris, and the Bing pix he posted.
