Hello fellow forum members! Many of you may be familiar with JDStucks' fantastic O-Gauge hi-rail layout on YouTube. I was privileged to see it with my own eyes and GoPro over the weekend. The footage will end up being a part of a class project for my Broadcast Documentary class at Kent State University.
Have fun taking a ride over all 3 levels of this fantastic layout!

Very nice video. If I had one problem it would be to much tunnel time, especially in the beginning where there's about 2 minutes of the train in the tunnel where all you can see are the lighted switches.
Great layout and fun video. Lot of train action and super job of keeping everything moving.

Wow! What a beautiful layout...and train room.
Thanks for uploading this Adam. We'll have to figure out a way to mount a light on the front next time lol
JD, Very nice layout and video. I have seen your layout before on YouTube.
Adam, thank you for sharing it with us.

You're welcome and yes we will have to figure something out! Either mount the camera on a searchlight car or just push along a searchlight car ahead of the camera car.
Glad you are all enjoying it!
Really enjoyed the video...

GoPro video of JD Stucks layout is very well done. A fun way to see his layout and train room.
Very Cool video. What a great layout. By the way, what level of GoPro did you use.
Great video, he has a great layout and I follow him on Youtube as well. Thanks!!
Great video! 
I was also wondering which model GoPro was used.

I have a GoPro Hero3+ Silver Edition. It is a very reliable camera!
Thanks.
Might be time to buy myself a Christmas present!

nice layout.......but having switches in tunnels?....seems your asking for trouble,i always read that doing that is a big no-no in layout books.-jim
Wow. Really nice layout. It so great to see video.
That was a good video, maybe I can duplicate the track plan now. Thanks for posting. I have been following Jason's layout build for at least a couple years or more. I think he has one of the most interesting track plans I have seen for that size space and I really like it.
Probably won't build a layout like his as I can't access all the under layout track he has or climb around on a layout. It is a neat track plan though and maybe I can figure out some easier access and make something similar that I can get to.
Hey fellas, nice layout video. I had seen Jason’s layout many many times on YouTube but this time (5 years later) it caught my attention that you used a GoPro for the video. It came out great. My question however was how did you mount or connect the GoPro to the train. I have a GoPro 5 and was wondering if there was an attachment that you used. Regardless, great video. - MARSHELANGELO
That's a great layout and track plan. Even now after 5 years has passed since this video, it's still topping my favorites list.
