Projections and railroads!

[MaximDeDonder]

Hi all

I wonder if anyone of you had the idea to combine a projector with you're model railroad. If you have, post it below!

I created some fireworks with a very simple and cheap beamer (projector), I think the effect is magical at night:

Hm not sure what you are takking about but understand that it is about the fireworks effect, they do look very good. But to me a beamer is a BMW car, google did not really help. Must be an age thing to me?

Beamer is just another word for projector. Used by non-native English speakers that speak German or Dutch.

a young man playing with trains.
what i could see of the layout. (many, many pics would be very welcome)
the projecting idea.

i'm a boomer, not a beamer. so i need an explanation.
did you project the fireworks from the front, or from behind with a transparent screen?

Now that's taking it to another level - I rather like it

Great effects, they really do look realistic.

Too see more of my layout (located in Belgium), see my YouTube-channel: Maxim De Donder on YouTube

The fireworks are projected in front of a wall. Because what you see as 'projection screen' is the wall of my shed.

Greetings!
