Fantastic father son duo, great info

I absolutely loved this podcast and was sad to see it end. With that being said, there’s plenty of shows to go back and listen through again. If you like building detailed structures, not just for train layouts, then this is the show for you!

This is the one

This is the best podcast on train / kit building and more. This is the one.

Laughter and Knowledge

Best of both worlds, learn new HO scale model techniques, and have a laugh.

Great show

Love the father son team. I personally like the shows without guests. Very entertaining.

The best model railroading podcast!

This show has helped my son and I discover HO scale modeling together and has introduced us to many new people and products in the hobby. The father and son team have great chemistry and the show is informative. Thanks for the laughs!
MaxSanDiego

Great info...but...

....but it’s hard to listen to because it seems like Todd is hammered. Put the blueberry ale down and stop stammering, dude. :)
wake me up (wake me up inside)

Great

Informative and entertaining fine scale modeling podcast. Really appreciate it.

Great podcast on modeling!

Just found you guys, a much needed modeling podcast focusing on structures for model railroads. Glad you out there, and I'm looking forward to listening for a long time.
