Title: Video of PS Presto
Post by: Don on November 16, 2012, 08:25:12 PM

I made this video last weekend using a GOPRO HD camera.  The first pass is at regular speed.  The rest of the passes are at different rates of slow motion from .5 to .25.  Hope you enjoy.

Beautiful relaxed video and love the music. Presto looks even better with the reflections. You seem to be enjoying some fine weather in contrast to conditions at Presto's birthplace. :(

Thanks for the kind comments.  The paddle wheels are from the Graupner "Glasgow" kit. They work well enough and are quiet.  They don't look very authentic though but most people around here have no idea what they really looked like.
