The Crescent City Model Railroad Club is an HO scale club in Metairie, LA (New Orleans metro area). This is a video taken by filming a tv monitor that had a live feed from a small video camera being pushed along the main line. By my calculations, the main line of track (traversed at a steady scale 70 mph by the camera car) is approximately 560 feet of track which represents 9.2 miles of real track. Each scale mile in the video is traveled in about 52 seconds. There are more professional videos of this layout available, but this one gives a good idea of how massive this layout is and what can be accomplished given a large space, lots of time and money and a lot of people contributing to the effort. Kuodos to the guys that put this layout together!
