So many visitors to the Franklin & South Manchester rr.  Ask George how do you keep your layout so clean?  In response TCT/FSM decided to answer the question with a short how to video.  We hope you find this tip helpful.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yO8oa6bvwmE&feature=youtu.be

2015:

The following clips are extended versions from the June issue of Model Railroad Hobbyist Magazine.
This clip is 2 minutes long. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHDm1zeMH4w&feature=youtu.be
This clip is 4 minutes long.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SdGxHoP95OE    
This clip is 7 minutes long.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2Fj7LSvWts   These video ads were made to showcase George's current kit for 2013 in modern media form & provide a little eye candy of the f&sm rr. while allowing TCT a chance to work hard and put on video some of the modeling skills of George's layout.  Forgive any mistakes-this is a huge learning curve for me. I will do my best to improve the sights & sounds in the future. 

2014:

This next clip was taken while George & I were setting up for a test how to video.
It's part of a new segment called Ask George Sellios:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOaXmQ5xeHw

This clip was an outtake we had while filming a how to segment on how do you keep the layout so clean when not in use George.  Funny mishaps do happen, even at the f&sm.  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hUUEzaFdXBg
2013:
The following link is simply a collage of outtakes taken from test footage for an upcoming video project of parts of the f&sm RR.  I've only listed this snippet to show there is progress for the future.  Sorry for any bad shots or lack of sound. This was only a test!     http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_BV4tAtnA3k
