Did someone say Z scale was too small? Not THAT was model railroading. Thank you. Frank

very nice!

however, only thing is, why the knightrider tv show music theme?
is it because:
Z scale typically is Merklin which is German comapny,
Germans love David hastlehoff,
David hastlehoff was the star of knightrider
???

It was either Knight Rider or listen to the commercials on the TV in the background. There is another Z scale video with heavy metal playing, just thought I'd switch it up.

Wow--as has already been said, it's hard to believe that's Z scale.

Yet another thing to make me feel ham-fisted and inadequate...  :-\

I've noticed that some of your videos have the commercials in the background.  It's kinda like you forgot that the camera was on. ;D ;)

Sure quote me before I fix my spelling :-[

If I didn't know better I'd think Tom is trying to convert us all to Z  :P

Anyone know a free and easy video editing program? I need to crop and add sound to my future youtube videos.
Where have I been all this time?

I've been waiting for this to unfurl, but
Pieces aren't always as good as the whole

Severed myself from my own light
Cut out the only thing that was bright
What If I never saw you again?
I'd die right next to you in the end

Nice job Chris! That might be the best pulling locomotive in Z Scale! Certainly it pulls better than the AZL steamers do, as they only pull about 7 cars before slipping. My Marklin Mike will only pull about 12-15 cars before slipping, and my Marklin Pacific will pull about 15, but it's a passenger loco.

I also use the free Windows Movie Maker for making youtube videos. I just use my digital camera to take the video clips, then when I want to add sound, use WMM to splice clips together, add effects, and a soundtrack. Easy enough that you don't need instructions to do it.

My Windows XP does not have Movie Maker in it. Any other suggestions?
