Video Title: Christmas Lights Gone Wild
Date Added: 5/24/2009 1:53:56 AM

This has absolutely nothing to do with trains, but it is really cool! Turn up the volume and enjoy! Submitters note: Let me first start by saying that this is not my house. Regardless of what any of the comments read, this house really does exist, I have seen it with my own eyes and nothing you see in the video is trickery, it's all real. This display was the work of Carson Williams, a Mason, Ohio, electrical engineer who spent about three hours sequencing the 88 Light-O-Rama channels that controlled the 16,000 Christmas lights in his annual holiday lighting spectacular (from Christmas 2004). His 2005 display includes over 25,000 lights that he spent nearly two months and $10,000 to hook up. So that the Williams' neighbors aren't disturbed by constant noise, viewers driving by the house are informed by signs to tune in to a signal broadcast over a low-power FM radio station to hear the musical accompaniment. The rough quality of the video has led some viewers to believe it was put together in stop-action form from still photographs, but that is an artifact of the high compression used in the clip circulated via e-mail. Mr. Williams has posted instructions for recreating his "Wizard in Winter" sequencing, and another of his choreographed Christmas light music shows can be viewed here. Carson's Christmas display proved so popular that it was featured in a Miller Lite beer commercial in December 2005.

Video Title: Steamtown Ice Harvest Train 2009
Date Added: 5/18/2009 5:46:52 PM

Continuing Steamtown National Historic Site's annual tradition, a steam-powered excursion is run out of Scranton, PA, in the middle of the cold snow-covered Pocono Mountain winter to Tobyhanna's Ice Harvest Festival. We follow the train as it makes its way up the hill to Tobyhanna, where a reenactment of an "Ice Harvest" takes place. The ice is then stored in the Ice House where it stays frozen even in the warmer months.

Video Title: Steam In The Snow - Conway Scenic Railroad
Date Added: 5/18/2009 5:38:49 PM

( www.lerroproductions.com ) A photo charter was hosted by Lerro Productions at the Conway scenic railroad during the first days of 2009. I was fortunate enough to be able to make the trip up to New Hampshire and film this rarity; a steam-powered freight train in the snow! Much thanks goes out to Pete Lerro and his crew for making this a memorable and worthwhile event. The cold temperatures were brutal, dropping to around zero during the Night Photo Session with 40 mile an hour gusts. Despite the frigid conditions, a fruitfull weekend was had for all of the photographers/videographers on hand. Hope you enjoy the video.
