Title: Waterhulme Video
Post by: Hugh Norwood on June 20, 2013, 14:52
Ian Drummond's "Waterhulme" made a welcome outing to Bradford in May. Ian allowed me to drive my micro video camera around the layout.
Here is the result
(Please ignore the time/date stamp - the device doesn't want to accept the codes to set it)

That's a very nice video Hugh, and at what looked like scale speed, thank you for sharing it.

The layout looked well made as well, I may catch up with it someday.

A superb video of what looks like a superb layout.  Thanks very much for putting it on the forum.

How big is the video camera Hugh?

To adjust the date and time, edit the TAG file on the device.

It's sold as  "keyfob" camera. The price oscillates wildly; I got mine for under a fiver (which may explain the problems with the time/date stamp) but they seem to have crept upwards. It sits with the aid of Blu-Tak on a home-made bogie flat.

It's about 50mm long, 32mm wide and 15mm high.

I couldn't care less about the date/time thing, I thought it was an excellent video Hugh and thanks for showing it!

Ian's Waterhulme has always been a layout that I have admired and it is good to see that it is still around as it is some years since I last saw it.

Great fun - and excellent quality, too. Memo to self: if I'm ever going to video my railway I need to remember to work on those bits that are normally unseen! (That's not a criticism, but a cab ride does show up the hidden areas that one maybe doesn't normally worry about giving the scenic treatment...)
