The Big Cab Ride (Westbound) at the Colorado Model Railroad Museum (Revised)

Bill Rogers Video 7 years ago

Description

Ride in a Southern Pacific cabforward locomotive as we travel from Lakeview to Klamath Falls on the Oregon, California and Eastern Railway.

This is a revised edit of an earlier video of exactly the same name. In this revision I attempted to make the color corrections I should have made in the original version. The original footage was shot using the camera's auto color balance. As the camera traveled through the layout, the auto color balance was frequently befuddled by the changing scenes and changing lighting conditions. I think this version is better. I hope you think so too.

Filmed at the Colorado Model Railroad Museum in Greeley, Colorado.

Thanks to Scott Inman of the California State Railroad Museum for the photo of 4294's cab interior.

The cab view footage was shot with a Sony FDR-AX3000 action cam mounted on a depressed center flatcar. The FDR-AX3000 camera has optical image stabilization.

The Colorado Model Railroad Museum website has extensive information about the layout, museum location, visiting Greeley, opening hours, and shopping opportunities in the museum gift shop. http://cmrm.org
