Here is the link to Terry Terrance's new promotional video titled 2 Rail O Scale 2016.  It was his intent to play his video at an O Scale King's booth at the upcoming NMRA 2016 National but at this point the availability of a booth is uncertain.  Meanwhile here it is to enjoy on line.

O scale 2 rail promotional video by Terry Terrance

The video is 1 hour and 27 minutes long featuring  6 layouts. The video starts with introductory remarks by Terry followed by video of Jim Canter's modular P48 Nickle Plate Road layout.  The remaining five video  segments feature comments by the builders.  The segments can be viewed incrementally as time permits with the following start points:

Chris Smith's Norfolk and Western             3:40

John Sethian's Pennsylvania Railroad      21:00

Wes Morgenstern's Western Maryland    43:00

Andrew Dodge's P48 Colorado Midland   55:20

Ed Rappe's Pennsylvania Railroad               1:10:00

I want to thank Terry for investing his time and resources to produce the video.  Hopefully it will stir interest in our hobby, particularly among those in other parts of model railroading who may not have the opportunity to see O scale, 2 rail in action or in hobby shops.

Rich,
Maybe, for once, it is YOUR computer!  
Worked fine for me first time. Nah, hah, na nah nah. I guess there is something to be said about that old adage..."what goes around, comes around". (inside joke folks)

Nice job Terry and to all of the modelers involved!!!

Nope...not my computer. At the time I tried it, there was just no response from the Vimeo server. I tried it on two different computers and an IPad and all were no go. Just checked before making this post and now it plays OK.

I think Vimeo was having a momentary problem.

Fantastic coverage of the magical Colorado Midland!  Thanks for sharing Mr. Dodge.  I hope you will consider contacting the Proto 48 team so they can include your layout on their site.  Now it's time to contact LaBelle to see if they'll consider adding CM cars to their O scale line of kits which would include the typical Midland caboose with round roof cupolas as well as the unique Hanrahan reefer which has been offered in their HO scale product line for over fifty years!

 

I tip my hat to the creator of this video as well as the O Scale modelers who participated in showing their layouts as well as the creation story of their dream. It goes to show that O Scale 2 rail is alive and well and what can be created on any hobby budget. We all learn from the masters who came before us, now hopefully we can leave a legacy and inspiration for all those who will follow in the future. My best regards to everyone involved with this video. Gene
