Re: Tinplate Video



I can not say exactly who owns that copy of the video.  At that time, one
of our club members was involved with video and put together some footage
that I and others had taken into a club video.  The shots of the layout
were in the basement of a church in New Braunfels across the street f rom
the convention center.  The TX State RR footage was from a club trip to
ride the railroad.  My wife or I probably shot most of the footage and
gave a copy to the guy to make the video.  I could not say where my
originals are now but I did transfer a lot of my old VHS stuff to DVD
recently.
