- Rail transport modeling at a different glance: In this video, Pilentum Television would like to present you the streets of a model railroad layout from the truck driver’s view. We are going to discover completely new insights of a miniature world in HO scale. Miniature car systems and scale model vehicles, which automatically drive on miniature roads, are a fascinating enrichment for every model train layout.
In the simplest case, these mini car systems can even be retrofitted to a model railway layout. Only a magnetic wire has to be installed below the road surface. After all, we need a vehicle. There are ready-to-run vehicles (see “Faller Car”). But you can also use any model car and modify it. There are conversion sets which include a front axle, a steering grinder, a motor, a rechargeable battery and a rear axle with gearbox.
Advanced mini car systems are characterized by intelligent traffic monitoring and distance control. In addition, those vehicles can be precisely controlled via DCC. Very popular miniature vehicle systems are the “Faller Car System”, based on analog or on digital control by using ultrasonic sensors, or the “DC Car System”, based on infrared sensors for traffic control. An innovative system that uses two wires and induction coils is the “Dinamo MCC System”.
The camera, used in this video, is the new “RunCam 5”, a superb cube camera (dimension: 38 x 38 x 36 mm or 1.49 x 1.49 x 1.42 inches) suitable for model railroading and railway modelling.
A very pleasant journey.
The realism, with the sound and video of the opening scene is astounding. Excellent work, thanks for creating this posting masterpiece.
Another amazingly realistic road trip. Funnily enough, it looks like the driver is either a beginner or a tidbit 'under the influence' :)
A very pleasant journey. I found it particularly enjoyable getting to tour the layout via the local roads. Very enjoyable. Thanks for the trip.
That was off the rails in total enjoyment scale, pun intended;-) fabulous insight into the model makers skills in portraying a world in miniature, admirable captured by your self, trust the driver didn't get a fine for ignoring a police officer for not pulling over as instructed lol
Or going through a pedestrian crossing with a pedestrian still in the crossing!
Brilliant, very realistic. The G Wagon driver that came out of the garage was on a mission wasn't he.😂
Wonderful layout. The "cab ride" is also a great way of showing you where you need repairs.
the bye-bye-grandma in the middle of the road was very lucky that day. the KRUPP-TITAN-TRUCK (?) passed her as near and fast as possible, but today without deadly injuries. also the bus driver started with his "JÄGERMEISTER-drunken-curve" in your opposite direction as usual. Doesn´t matters ....streets are empty on early sunday morning - let the engine run, cause YOU can !: really great video. well done !
Ca change des vues embarquées des trains! Superbe!!
Zoveel details! Wat een toewijding

Great video, thank you. Such a difference to see the layout from the eyes of a vehicle. The sound is great too! 🙂
Wow this truck has a lot of gears :)
Bonjour, l’effet des routes mouillées après une pluie est très réussi. Félicitations. Bravo 👍 😉😊😊🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🍀🍀🍀🍀🍀
wow, what a great landscaping, amazing work
This is amazing!
It’s good there wasn’t a spider in the cobweb behind the carnival. At this scale it could have been disturbing!
Love it!!
Fantastic video I feel like I’m riding on one of the trucks down the road 😁👍

C'est magnifique !
Muy maravilloso video
Geweldig.
What can I say other than Brilliant really enjoyed this video
Just beautiful 😍
Great to see more layouts with vehicle traffic. Would it be possible to mount the camera showing the view from a steam loco cab, or are the cameras still too big? Thanks, Ronn
best video 👌❤️
super bravos!
Sweet! 😎
Que grandes creativos son mis respetos
Que bonito !!
378 views and only 42 likes? You must’ve waited because you didn’t put down you didn’t like it so why didn’t you click like? These videos are always fantastic never disappointing.
That was very impressive!
Did you add the sound, or was the model making it?
Great video ...but too many shift's in the truck.
Is this the magnorail or faller car system? Great video 💘
RC Cosplay omg! Could you imagine maintaining the chain and motor of the magnorail system on a thoroughfare this long and intricate?
Son insuperables son maravillosos
👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍😊😁🌹
Its sounds like the engine sound was from the euro truck simulator 2 isn't it?
Hi, greeting from indonesia 🇲🇨.
I want to ask u if you have heard issue about COPPA. So, i wonder if videos in this channel are detected by TH-cam machine as MADE FOR KIDS? if so, then what is your action? Thanks for sharing.
Because i also make miniature content
Hi! My videos are NOT made for kids.

Wow

It's funny how the car constantly shifts, but never drives faster afterwards.
Strepitoso!
A lot of time and effort went into a very boring layout. Not much action, only about a half dozen other moving vehicles. Not worth the watch.
