How do I get this cam to work? I never get any thing but a blank screen. Am I doing something wrong?
THE CAMERA IS MOUNTED ON THE GLASS ENCLOSED WALKWAY OVER THE TRACKS FROM
THE ROANOKE HOTEL TO PARKING GARAGE. I AM WATCHING IT NOW. GO TO TRAIN.COM, CLICK ON ROANOKE CAM, WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER SHOULD COME UP WITH PICTURE. SPENT JULY 5-7 THERE WITH MY GOD SON. GREAT TIME!!! HOTEL ROANOKE IS FIRST CLASS.
methinks you are talking about two different webcams.
The Virginia Museum of Transportation is not the same as the Hotel Roanoke, but they both have a webcam that looks at the same tracks (albeit from opposite ends. They can almost see each other, but they are just a wee bit to far away from each other and the cantilever signal tower is in the way.
The Hotel Roanoke Railcam works very well lately and has a pretty good up-time.
The VMT Railcam, however seems to be non-working the last several times I have tried to access it. Like the Original Poster wrote, all I get is a white screen with some advert logos at the bottom under a black border rectangle where the image is supposed to appear.
I am not looking for the Roanoke Hotel cam. I can get it ok. I’m looking for the Museum cam.

I never have been able to find the museum cam. Finally found the Fostoria and when their new park is built hope we get more active cams there, although the one that’s active is fun.
