Some shots of the convention, starting with the hectic activities as the hall opened. Hickory NC. The proceeds from the convention are for the restoration of two historic box cars, one from the Lawndale RR, and one from the East Tennessee and Western North Carolina (Tweetsie) railroads.

More than 1000 attended, raising more than $2000 towards the work the volunteers are doing.

Video is a mixture of Canon 5d mk2 and Sony Ex1. The canon had a non-IS 50mm 1.8 lens, Edited in Vegas.

Great video. However, I just want to point out that the 611 model wasn't prototypical at all...it was missing a little group of NS executives standing trackside plotting to put her back in a museum again. :)

Thank goodness. There were a few other things that weren't quite right. Thomas doing 200 mph for example...

I just wish they had some of the narrow gauge running...

Nice stuff, I added it to the model channel. I don't come here as often as I would like so if you have new stuff be sure to shoot me an email. I get the messages on my phone and I will find time to add stuff to the channels if I know there is content to add.

Keep it up Bill,
Ross
