A test run of a dome car camera rig on my Southern Pacific layout.  A Mobius Actioncam which has a detachable lens and sensor assembly are shown mounted in a hacked up Concor dome car.  

The video shows a complete circuit of the layout from upper level reverse loop to lower level reverse loop and back to the upper level.  Unlike the videos I shoot at the Colorado Model Railroad Museum, I've made no attempt to minimize the off-layout views.

I'll be using this rig next week while shooting the Westbound California Zephyr at the Colorado Model Railroad Museum in Greeley.
