Ken you Rock my Fiancee and I watch "what's neat" every month and we are big Fans Thank you for making Model railroading Great for us.
I for one have loved the what's neat presentations you put out there Ken. Thanks for such fine work.
Wow, Mr. Keaton was in your train room. So awesome. Another great video. -Mark
Ken, you have the best shows, information and just really cool stuff all the time. Much thanks and Big Respect to you!!! WTCMRR
Another great episode! Can't wait to have a look at some of vendors you featured.
Another great video, love all of them, educational, inspirational and a pure joy to watch!
Now, I've got to see my doctor about my Milwaukee Road addiction! 😉 😄
Another awesome episode! Happy railroading!!!!!!!!!!
Well done Ken. I liked the drone view at the end.
Thanks for the great overview of the RPM meet. Well done! I have to say that my favourite line was from Andy Harman. He said that he suffers from "multiple decades disorder". Hilarious. Don't we all?
I've been working on regulating the disease, selling off my post-1970s stuff and resisting the temptation to buy anything that doesn't fit. But the passenger trains of all eras will always be with me. I also have some SP steam locos that don't fit the 70s and don't fit the passenger trains either. At least some of my NYC and PRR steam can pull a passenger train.
Another great feature. Interesting and informative!
Another great video Ken. I really need to get down there and attend one of these RPM meets. I am too intimidated to bring a model, but I would like to see what the REAL modelers are doing. The selection of vendors looks very tempting, just don't tell my wife how much I want to spend.
Loved the drone fly-over.
I just started using Badger model flex paint and love it. Wish the Hobby Lobby in my town carried it.
Hi Ken, I always enjoy your "What's neat" features. You feature some excellent modelling ideas and products. There was some excellent products on view at the RPM meet. Although I'm based in the UK, I model both the American HOn3 and modern HO scenes and I will try to make it to next years event in June. Kind regards, Murray
Great episode. Great information specially the Iowa signaling system. Now the drone flying over your layout that has to go viral.
Good job on Covering the RPM meet Ken. I am coming in 2017!!!!!
AWESOME KEN! ! ! ! !
Thank you
I am long overdue to attend a RPM Meet! I've been saying that for years...
You did a great job covering the vendors. You've made me want to check out Tangent, Plano, and I already forgot the name of that company making the automatic modular Signal system. Iowa 1 something! I'll have to look back and check it out...
June 23rd & 24th. 2017. I've GOT to make a note of that!
Great show report, thanks.
you rock! trains 4-ever.! Thank you very much.
thanks for the share I now know of some cool web sits I will have to check out.
Ken, Great coverage. I'd love to see a single screen at the end that has all of the websites of the companies you featured. That way I can simply take a screen shot for future reference. Saw several suppliers I'd like to visit their websites. Like yourself and for the same reason, I've not ventured into signaling. Maybe you and IAScaled.com can shoot a how to demo video featuring you installing their system on your layout.
GREAT SHOW LOTS OF INFORMATION THANK AGAIN
That train depot that you show for a short time in your video... that looks like the Red Wing, MN depot... and if it is that is where I live and where I get most of my photos of trains.
Good job Ken!
Great videos love them keep it up cheers
Very cool seeing David Ward with Protoloads.com on the show. I have been a good customer of his every since I found his website. I've actually made a couple of Protoloads videos on my Seaboard Central CZcams page if anyone is interested in seeing the different car types and awesome looking loads he creates. Tim
Does anyone know the make and model of those lights used on the Mudhens model? I'm planing to build a peninsula layout and those looked great.
Wish I could meet you ken.live in Florida to far away.🙁
Nice mini drone fly-by at 39:04... Which mini drone was used?
I'm trying to figure out the lack of Rock Island models seen at the RPM meets. It's almost like nobody models them. There's a lot of nice models shown though.
thats cool Michael Gross showed up
Did someone build the Red Wing depot or is it going to be offered as a kit ?
Winston's 5 minutes of fame at 20:00!
Where do I find Polystyrene or styrene?
cool
There are a few tips for diy railroad layout construction
Find a suitable set of plans online
Find a mate who wants to build one too so you have another person to encourage you
(I discovered these and the reasons they work from Jareks hobby club website )
