Well I don’t know if it’s new but it’s new to me. My dad turned me on to it this morning. It’s at Brooklyn yard up in Portland,Or. There is actually 2 cams, one looking each way up the tracks. And it’s streaming video (updates every 3/4 second or so). Anyway here’s the link:

Instead of putting the actual link in the text of the post, use the following format (with the correct brackets):

This is {url=“http://www.website.not”}not a real link{/url}, just click on the colored words.

It will come out thus:

This is not a real link, just click on the colored words.

If a reader likes the site, they can simply add it to their favorites. Note the name of my model railroad in my sig. Clicking on the RR name will take you to my personal page.
