Title: View from the cab of a model train (Slight adult content)
Post by: Malc on May 23, 2012, 12:35:46 PM
This is a very large layout in Fredrikstad, Norway. They have a camera car in front of the loco and it gives a "minute by minute" run around the layout. There are several cameo scenes, one or two are a bit rude, so don't watch this if you are easily offended. All I will say, is they made me grin!  Norwegians, eh!

Excellent layout. I showed the wife some of the more 'colourfull' parts and she said quite emphatically, 'don't even think about it'. As if I would :angel:

Camera wagons were available here;

but there seems to be a problem with the supplier.

I love these cab rides round layouts, I think they would help show where attention is needed.

With your skills Alex, I am sure the animated parts would be far more detailed  :smiley-laughing:  :smiley-laughing:

cheers John.

Good layout and trip.
They've got a long way to go with their colourful cameos to beat Minitur Wunderland, they had them everywhere.
Or as my sister put it 'they're obsessed!'  :smiley-laughing:
Thanks for posting though  :thumbsup:

Excellent vid.

Though it looks like right at the end the camera came to the end of its cable. :smiley-laughing:
