Thanks! I'm sure I'm not the only one looking forward to it!

:)

YouTube is good, and most popular to get people to view things. I haven't really found anything better to view from that is as popular. But I agree with you it could be better. I do like their HQ and HD options to view videos, but that has to be set by the owner of the video.
 
Okay, Ill just deal with Youtube for now. Ill try to set it up for better quality but the route is a WIP anyways so its just a teaser.

Thanks

This weekends's plans...

Hello all,
I would just like to share with you this weekends plans. After making the short teaser film on Saturday or Sunday I will commence all work on the coal staging yards in Newport News, VA. Now normally I wouldn't get into such detail and devotion into a ceartin industry that is technically after the end of the line but since its related to Amtrak by a thread I figured I might as well do it.

After an Amtrak Northeast Regional's run to Newport News is over it moves into CSX's yard to wye around for its break and prep for the run back North. However, one train gets there in the afternoon and leaves in the morning. Since Amtrak has no designated facilities in the area the consist including the engine is wyed and thrown wherever it will fit in the dense yard, courtesy of CSX Transportaion. So since this little area may be included in future scenarios and is necessary for ceartin operations (and its just plain cool) I decided to in clude it.

For those who are interested I have a shot of an Amtrak train laying over. The engineers SUV is seen right in front of the engine:

BTW This is my 1,000th post, so I thought I would make it mean something!:D :D

Thats all for now and expect screenies and a video this weekend.

Best wishes,

Davis
