Nightrider... cab ride by head lamp

[CoggesRailway]

This is really to show what can be done with a single LED. This one is mounted in the loco headlight and supplied by ROSS of this parish.
The train leaves the light of the garage/patio and heads into the pitch black. Watch until the end if you want to know what it's like to get hit by a train at night lol.

PS Nothing like a cabride view to notice the bad track and mess everywhere.....

Nice ride, that led is certainly bright!

It wasn't messy at all!

Excellent video Ian
Funnily enough I've got a video of a train very nearly hitting me in your back garden

'nearly hitting me in your back garden'

Is this a euphemism?

Very good!

Been better if you'd have used full beam, instead of dipped....

Ha ha yes I agree - it needs to be angled up a bit but its glued now.

Amost an "eerie" sound to the vid (loco gears?). Nice though.
