Creator's Key Takeaways
I use a special kind of camera called an osmo it's made by a Chinese company called DJI and this is basically a camera similar to a GoPro mounted onto a Gimbal
this DJI osmo camera sells for less than $600 on Amazon and trainworld.com sells these little LGB DCC locomotives for about 150 bucks
I hope this video has been helpful to you and has given you some ideas about how to shoot better videos of your own model railroad

YouTube Video Descriptionโ
A tutorial on how to improve the quality of track-level point-of-view video of g-scale model railroads. Using a DJI Osmo motion stabilized handheld video camera, I was able to shoot stable video of my model trains without the usual shaky quality you would get when mounting a video camera on to a locomotive. With this lesson, you'll know what equipment it takes to get rid of the shakiness when shooting model railroading videos. The motion stabilized video camera is the perfect size to mount on a G-scale locomotive... but it would certainly be too large for other smaller scale model railroads such as HO.
