Lochdubh and Great Glen Railway

Hello, in these thread I will show you my layout.
It is a scottish themed layout in N scale. I build it to the recommendations of FREMO (friends of european model railroads). My layout is based on the Hamish Macbeth mysteries by M.C. Beaton. The time period could be changed from the early 60s to the 70s and 80s and early 2000s.
For today I would show you a short video I made last weekend during a Minisession I've held for some friends of mine.

During the last few weeks I modified an old Fraish HST with a Tramfabriek coreless motor and a DCC chip. Today I run the train the first time on my layout in preperation of our coming FREMO Great-britN / FREMO N-RE meeting in my town.

From November 1st until November 3rd I organised a FREMO Great-britN and FREMO N-RE modular meeting in the parish hall in my town. here are two films and my pictures of the meeting.

The Great-britN modular layout consisted of all our available modules. The time period was set for 1990.





And the link to my pictures.

Nice layout... If I may ask, what did you use for your cab camera, and how did you mount it?

I'm using a Nanotrix Pluto USB camera. But unfortunatly it is no longer available. But maybe these camera from Nanotrix could be an alternative.

I've put the camera on a open car. I made a simple holder from cardboard, so that the camera is not shifting on the car during filming.

Hello Oliver,

the link doesn't work. The Nanotrix camera I'm using don't use any Wifi connection, you could only save the videos on an Micro SC card, that you have to buy seperatly.
