Mayner Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 (edited) Some playing around with the video function and editor. Imagine its 1958 a group of railfans have decided to explore and chase trains on the relatively undocumented western extension of the Arigna Tramway. Starting out at Boyle the group chase a mixed train to a crossing point with a coal special filming the arrival of the mixed and departure of the coal train with some panned shots on a roadside tramway section. 6T on the roadside section with the 12:30 Boyle-Ballinamore mixed. 6T arriving at Keadue, 3T waiting with a coalie. 3T departing. 3T on roadside section All I need to figure out is how to improve the photo editing and add realistic sound and smoke effects Edited October 30, 2013 by Mayner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David Holman Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Good stuff! Always a positive when trains not only look good, but run well too. By no means a given, in my experience, so well done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glenderg Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Bugger, thought the first vid was old skool 8mm real footage. Even paused and got a cuppa after a few seconds! This was early in the day too so forgive my gullibility. Lovely work sir, Richie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mayner Posted January 13, 2020 Author Share Posted January 13, 2020 It looks like Keadue slumbered through another year (apart from acting as a background for broad gauge stock!) before suddenly springing to life for a brief operating session, I thought it was as well to clean the track while vacuuming the dust off the layout. Although we are currently down to two engines there were no problems apart from a buckled rail on the main line near the loco shed and two troublesome Tilling points on the lead to the fiddle yard! 3T gave a good account of herself for the cavalcade of visiting enthusiasts with a train made up of C&L, CVR & T&D coaches This scenic section has been problematical, the baseboard was too narrow to incorporate a typical C&L halt/crossing keepers house and I have been unable to resolve problems with the Tilling points leading into the fiddle yard at one end and problems with the C&L 4-4-0Ts on the sharp curve between the roadside section and the station area. It may be simpler to build a new wider scenic section with a roadside section and a halt on a sharp curve similar to Kiltubrid or Ballyduff than attempt a re-build, oh and replace those points in the fiddle yard! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
