andykwilkinson Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 Not sure if this is the correct or best section but this is an update for our 2008 film about our model of Thurston station as it would have been in the 1950's, built and operated by Ely & District Model Railway Club members, the culmination of 15 years modelling work (so far!) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pc_Frt9EkBI This new film focusses on some of the excellent OO rolling stock (scratch built, kit built or weathered/modified RTR) by various Ely & District Model Railway Club Members for this 20ftx10ft exhibition layout. Shot at the 20011 Model Rail Scotland Exhibition in Glasgow, the film shows some of the typical trains that would have run on this stretch of line. The first minute is just shots getting the team and the layout to Scotland, then different categories of trains are shown and at the end it's some coming home shots and a few out-takes - derailments of course! Early in 2012 we hope to produce a much more involved film (or films) with a narrative explaining some of the details about the prototypical stock being shown, hopefully with a few supplementary photographs etc. In the meantime this film has been cut to a royalty free/copyright free music backing track. You can find out a lot more about this model and details about the prototype, located 4.5 miles east of Bury St. Edmunds in Suffolk, by watching the 2008 Thurston OO film, split into two 10 minute sections on the links below: Thurston OO Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RP0m9lwUcxM Thurston OO Part 2: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5-qqE-c13tk You can also find out more about Ely & District Model Railway Club by looking at our website: http://www.elymrc.org.uk/ I hope you enjoy the films!
