This video was taken with the Camera Car on the Twin City Model Railroad Museum.
The Camera was pulled around the world famous O Scale Layout in 1990 after it was moved from the St Paul Union Depot some years earlier.
Paul Gruetzman built the camera car so that we can see what it is like to actually ride a train around the layout. This was taken in 1990, when the layouts was located at Bandana Square.
