The signs are cool, loved the Petro Can and Esso gas stations signs. Where are all the cranes available at?

[@mikeknuckey]

Awesome show! I need to get to the next RPM!!! Its amazing how almost all industries are focus on details, everytime models get more and more real. Great work!

[@John-g6m9z]

[@RolandForest]

Great show guys I’m an old gauge guy, but I really love what you guys show and the friendship you guys display. It makes it really interesting.

[@ricklichenberger2931]

Wow! Great segment

[@michaelamoroso4561]

Thanks for the tour of the RPM Show.

[@riogrande5761]

Thanks to Ken and friends for this look at the St Louis RPM show. Great to see David interviewed. I'm a Tangent junkie - I only wish they would offer the D&RGW caboose! That N-scale layout is very nicely done!

[@TobiasL1000]

What will be the price for the aurora well car?

[@philipwilliams6270]

Great show was there any g scale showing their didn’t see any

[@scottleidenberger4401]

Great show guys.

[@politicsandtrains]

Love the CP diesel!!

[@gbrtrains]

Great show. It was full of great information for new products. I saw a couple of interviews where they are making HO scale vehicles. I am specifically looking for an Artesian Well Drilling rig either the rotary or earlier compression rigs. I don't use Facebook so I am unable to contact Dana Stratton of 3D Model Designs. Is there another way to contact him? Thanks

[@ronaldbrooks5982]

All of the manufacturer are great.

Hi Ken this is Neil schwerdt in west valley city Utah,I have a question to ask you can anyone go to this RPO show ? Thank you for what you do for the hobby 🙂

[@TobiasL1000]

Wish I could travel one time to America to Visit one of this shows….buy all the good stuff and send it back to Europe!

[@JeffShultz]

If you ever get the chance to, and can pick which one, I recommend the Amherst Model Railroad Society's Railroad Hobby Show in West Springfield, Massachusetts. It's a shopping extravaganza.

[@TobiasL1000]

@@JeffShultz thank you for the advice. I was wondering which model railway show is the biggest one in America? Or which one is really good and in a place, that is interesting for tourist? I need to convince my wife to go there!

[@JeffShultz]

@@TobiasL1000 That's the problem... the Railway Hobby Show is definitely the largest in the US (only Trainfest in Milwaukee and the NMRA"s National Train Show (location varies) can compete) but being the last weekend in January in New England it always risks poor weather - and is almost always very cold. While Boston and New England are famously tourist friendly, that time of the year is not the best for visiting. As a general rule, aside from the NMRA National Train Show, which takes place during the summer months, most train shows are scheduled for times when people wouldn't be vacationing, or at least not vacationing in the areas where they are being held. Hawaii, sadly, does not have any train shows that I know of, and while the Cocoa Beach RPM is indeed in Florida, in January, it's focus is on modeling clinics and modeling displays, with only a few vendors.

I'm sorry i missed it! Eye operation! I love the opening the MoPac 1982 Heritage unit! Great interviews, products, & overflowing talent! I can't believe all the 3d items! That is crazy! This is "The World's Greatest Hobby" Till Next Time! MoPac Jack "May Your Tracks Be Clear & Your Switches Be Lined Up" Rock N'Roll Forever..

[@grahamfrench9874]

From the land of Downunder that was an excellent show

[@richardcolemanjr3749]

Plastic Pellet covered hoppers and tank car varieties are definitely needed. These cars are the most dominant on modern manifest trains these days.

[@alfredmaciejewski4020]

Unable to find Dana Stratton's 3D Model Designs anywhere on Facebook. Does anyone have a link?

[@IronhorseEngineering]

I also could not find Dana Stratton's 3D Model Design on Facebook. Anyone have Contact info?

[@KingTrump2024]

Ben !!!!

[@amyreynolds3619]

That Southern railway locomotive is lost that should be in the front of the locomotives.

[@Okanagan_modeler]

3 minutes of show and 30 seconds of commercials is intolerable to watch. Too bad because I love your show!!
