Last fall I had the pleasure of being interviewed by Lionel Strang and the crew of the A Modelers Life podcast. Today that podcast was officially published and is available to download.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you’re not familiar with the Modelers Life podcast, it’s a show about the people who make up the model train hobby. From the shows website, “All modelers have a life, but what do we know of it. This podcast is as much about the people in model railroading has it is about the hobby itself.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lionel Strang hosts the show with a rotating crew of regular contributors from the model railroad community. \u200bLionel is best known as the builder of the Allegheny and Lackawanna Southern, a 20\u2019 X 30\u2019 HO Scale layout. He also built two project railroads for Model Railroader Magazine: the Northwest Timber Company and the Appalachian Central. Lionel wrote the monthly column Workin\u2019 on the Railroad for Model Railroader magazine from July 1998 until May 2005, then continued to serve as a contributing editor for another six years after that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a really fun interview to do and I’m honored to help represent both the LEGO\u00ae train hobby and BMR to the greater model railroad hobby. I hope you enjoy the interview and let me know what you think of the show.

Amherst Railway Society’s Railroad Hobby Show<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

As you may have read<\/a>, I’ll be attending the Amherst Railway Society’s 51st annual Railroad Hobby Show<\/a> in Springfield Massachusetts January 26th and 27th. While there I will have the prototype model for our upcoming Reading T-1 Steam Locomotive Kit<\/a> on display at the American Steam Railroad Preservation Association booth in the Young building. The ASR group is currently restoring Reading T-1 no.2100 to operation, and with whom BMR has been working with on our model of the T-1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I’ll be splitting my time between the New England LEGO User Gorup’s LEGO train layout in the Mallary building, the ASR Society booth, and just enjoying the show. But if you can track me down, look for the guy wearing the Brick Model Railroader T-shirt, I would love to talk about the T-1, other BMR kits or just trains and LEGO in general. Hope to see you there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
