It would be best to use Amtrak power.<br>

I have a special HO Amtrak set that is a tribute to a friend of mine
who passed away last year right before the fair (he owned a matching
car that is in this train) that I would like to run for the shoot, but
don’t have any Amtrak power. Is it ok to run it behind my UP 1943
locomotive or is there someone that can lend me their modern-era Amtrak
locomotive(s)?

<div>Hello all</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Thank you for all that showed up Friday and Saturday to clean
the layout in preparation for the photo shoot with TSG Multimedia.
Regrettably I was not able to show either day due to work and getting
ready for a business trip that I will be on all next week, coming home
on Saturday (the day of the photo shoot). </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Just a reminder, this is a photo shoot that has the very real
potential to be seen world wide! Who ever is showing up that Saturday
to help with this great endeavor pleas bring your best running AND best
appearing equipment. We need to make our club look good, no missing
hand rails, lights working, appropriate paint and so on. The operating
rules will be in affect, run prototypically. By prototypically I mean
run scale appropriate speeds, appropriate equipment and so on. I have
learned that when I am taking video of my trains, sometimes what looks
good to the eye turns out to be warp speed on film. To quote Space
Balls "They've gone plad!" So please no "plad" trains. Whatever your
power is, run equipment behind it that is appropriate for that era.
There are guide lines as far as era is concerned in the operating rules
that have been voted in. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Follow the photographers' instructions, I am sure most of us
have seen their videos before, they are good at what they do. Assume
that when they are there it is not going to be a free run. Odds are
trains will be staged and run on cues for the sake of the video, in
other words hold off camera and on the given cue run it through the
shot, but above all listen to instruction, the shots are planned, are
trains are now actors. The videos I have seen, follow one train around
the layout with a few meets thrown in. That one train NEEDS to run
well with ideally no issues.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Who ever is showing Saturday for the shoot, I have herd that
the shoot is starting at 10. Please show up at 9 if you can to set up
and clean track. If you have a track cleaner in your train make sure
it is in good working order, looks respectable, AND is era
appropriate! Remember we are trying to replicate the real world.</div>
