Here's the linky... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSoeHoHElJ4

Hi All,

I was bored and trapped in by the rain yesterday. I decided to make a montage of my successes and mishaps from my first year playing with trains....

Don't worry you don't have to watch it through - but humour me by having a look....

Seriously - I am grateful to all of you for helping me in this hobby I would never have guessed I'd enjoy so much- looking at the early bits of this video you can see how much I have learnt!

Let me know what yout think!!

Ian

Well I enjoyed it :clap:

Must admit the Thomas bit made me feel a bit queezy.
Very much like London to Brighton in five mins:bleh:

Is the camera ok after the fence incident

WOW!! Ian, what a fantastic video and impressive achievements in just 12 months. Hearty congratulations! :clap:

One correction though. The video caption says "one man and a small boy". Surely that should be "two small boys, one of whom keeps crashing things"? :rofl:

Now that was fun. Loved the "what can possibly go wrong now" bit.

Enjoyed the video - great. Looks like you have achieved a lot in a year and you are having plenty of fun.

One thing is missing - you should always run with a caboose at the end of the train. This is a good thing to do because real trains had them and the train looks better. More important - if you see a train without a caboose at the end you know something has become uncoupled. Works for me anyway.

Most enjoyable. I salute your endurance - those winter shots! Also like the hommage to "London to Brighton in 4 Minutes"
