Tour the GGRM Museum Train

There's somthing trueley remarkable about railroading, something deep down inside that we can't explain, we only under stand. Ok enough with that, alot of you remember I would talk about I volunteer with the Golden Gate Railroad Museum, I would like to share one of my volunteer duties. Giving tours of our Museum Train.
Made up of our finest passenger cars and the 2472 as the motive power, our museum train was a big hit this year attracting thousands of visitors. Here is a slide show with photos of both the interior & exterior of our cars, music from Pirates of the Caribbean with a sound recording of 2472's whistle at the end.
Enjoy, and watch the Golden Gate Railroad Museum web site at www.ggrm.org and Thank You for your support.

What program do you use for your photos? Had never thought about back/white photos, but they do nicely in the Excutive Car. I took all of mine in color. That is my favorite car. just never got around to doing anything withmy photos.

[ThomasRivette]

I used Windows Movie Maker and there are 2 ways to take B&W photos.

1: Press the menu button on your camera and look under collor. It will give you B&W and Cepia.

2: Windows Movie Maker has an effect called Gray scale.

I used B&W photos from my camera in this vid. Thanks Again.
