Video Gallery

The video gallery is destined to be a permanent feature on the Railfan's Guide. Due to the immense size of these files, I am only able to offer a few at a time, and I will try to rotate them every couple of months. These quicktime format movies take a long time to load, so be patient, and Enjoy! (And if you have a site that would be willing to host a clip or two, please e-mail me.)
