Lovely Al!  I particularly like the last clip where you start on the bridge and then pan to follow the train.  I've never tried posting up video on the forum, it sounds as if it's a bit of a challenge!

Thanks both - actually the panned shot is a bit too jerky at the start for my tastes, and I did it three times before I got one that wasn't too bad. I didn't want to start panning until the train was already under the bridge, but there's a bit of resistance from my tripod mount as it starts to move.

Dave - all I did was upload it to Youtube, as you would any Youtube clip, and then simpy paste the URL into the blog post as you'd do for any link. The fiddly stuff is all in the editing to join the individual clips together, but if you just did a single clip, and your camera outputted a common video format, you'd be able to load it up pretty easily.

Thanks Al, once my loco's move under their own power I'll have a go at uploading some clips!

What a gorgeous video Al but disappointed not to see your King and a train of centenaries.Superb work.

That's a good point, Robin - I'll get the King out next time!

Thanks all...

As a coda, I downloaded a bunch of advertising malware last night while installing the .mov to .avi converter, so beware! Spent this morning sorting that one out!
