By all measures our just completed Open House was successful. A steady stream of visitors were appreciative of the ability to see model trains in action “up close and personal.” What contributed to the success was the camera train. A number of positive comments were received on the camera train that provided a live engineer’s view over Highland Pacific Railroad trackage. A modified passenger car housed the camera while a locomotive pushed the camera car around the layout. The unique view was amazingly similar to commercial videos of cab rides on prototype railroads.
