Title: In-ko-pah Railroad -- My best video so far!
Post by: Ray Dunakin on September 03, 2011, 07:37:39 PM
Here's a brand new video of my 1/24th scale, In-ko-pah Railroad. I think it's my best video of the RR to date! I've tried to shoot and edit this in the style of a professional railfan video, depicting a day on the In-ko-pah Railroad. You'll see my Bachmann/BBT 4-6-0 steam locomotive and my kitbashed narrow gauge RS-3 diesel in action, along with detailed structures and the beautiful, realistic desert scenery I've created.

I'm really excited about how this video turned out!

BTW, there are no "dubbed" sounds. All the locomotive sounds are produced by the Phoenix P9 sound systems installed in the locos.

Fabulous Ray, and very professional.

My favourite bit are the the diesel coming around the S curve, and the night shots, you really have the lighting spot on in/on the buildings.

Now if you could just add some smoke/steam to go with the sound it would be perfect  ;)

Thanks! I'm in San Diego, and I hauled in all the rocks -- many tons of them. Most of them came from a site about 20 miles east of us, and some came from the desert 80-90 miles away.

So far I only have the one passenger car, and haven't even gotten around to painting and lettering it for my RR yet.

Here are a couple pics taken earlier this year when I was extending the tops of the mountains. These will give you some idea of how much rock I had to break, haul, and cement in place:
