For your viewing entertainment, our club is sharing what we hope will be our last ever virtual layout tour video.
To give some background, this was prepared as our submission for the 2022 Doubleheaders Tour last March, and features absolutely no (zero / nil / nada) trains operating. This was because every past video we’ve produced shows practically nothing other than trains running, and we wished to do something more instructive and completely different this time around. So sit back, grab a beverage, and listen as WRMRC VP Ted Kocyla bores enlightens you for 23 minutes about what the club has accomplished over two years of pandemic restrictions.

If nothing else, this video helps us advertise all the new things you can see at our upcoming Fall Open House, where we hope everyone can visit us in person again. Stay tuned for more information about that. But for now, this video will have to do.
Your layout is WONDERFUL. The history behind the buildings is great. WELL DONE ALL !!!!
Hi, wonderful video for your most ambitious project. If interested, I have created all sorts of JMRI signal files based on CROR c.1962 that I would be happy to share. They are used on the Model Railroad Club of Toronto which features fully prototypic CROR signals on our O scale layout, along with the full working logix for our CTC machine. Regards, Dave M
You can change the shutter speed on whatever device you are filming the signals. It’s the shutter speed which makes the signals flash like that. If you use a speed which is close to a multiple of 60 you get the flashing because some of the frames will be taken when the half-wave 60 Hz is on, and some will be when it’s off. Try different shutter speeds to find one where the light seems to stay on.
Thanks Jurgen, I knew there had to be a simple solution to this.
