To be honest I am disappointed in that I am likely all but done using the GoPro for my trains and layout. It has been big fun using it with my dogs (5 Dachshunds) in the pool. I am by far not the "stick it to your helmet" and record "you are not living unless you are almost dying" kind of guy.

It is just too wide of an angle with no way to change that aspect of it for practical model train use. There are programs to reverse the wide angle distortion in photos. This is all too much like work for me.

I will assemble this view masking flat car bracket kit I got and try it at some point.

But for now my concentration is finishing my SW1 and Trainmaster for the Modelers Meet.
