  • Episode 72: Old Tapes

    I found a whole bunch of old tapes in the back of the filing cabinet and turned them into a show. Ralph ”Ralphie Boy” Renzetti and Shane ”the Young Gun” Mason talk weathering. Ron Klaiss talks about the railroad heritage in his family and finally Shane ”the Cosmic Cowboy” Murphy tells us about his experiences at the SoundTraxx installation school.

    Enjoy!!

  • ViewerMail Flight #56

    Don’t understand why the lady at the dry cleaning store can’t find your favorite Hawaiian shirt you dropped off over 10 years ago. Can’t figure out why your neighbors grass looks better even though you spread three bags of fertilizer in the fall of ’97.

    Well fear not, these questions and thousands more won’t be answered as you stare blankly at the wall while listening to another exciting edition of ViewerMail. So sit back with a big bowl dried palm tree bark, a tall frosty glass of watered down windshield washer fluid and enjoy!!

  • Episode 71: Eric Hansmann

    Episode 71: Eric Hansmann - I’ve known Eric for over twenty years and have followed his journey through life with great interest so it seemed obvious we should share his story with the millions of ModelersLife listeners.

    Eric hosts two great blogs, one is about designing, building and operating layouts and the other about Resin Car Works. So if you’re interested to find out how a guy from Indiana, Pennsylvania ended up in El Paso, Texas via Morgantown, West Virginia this is a podcast you won’t want to miss !!

    Enjoy !!

  • Kelly Questions - Round 17

    Wayne Mollohan wondered if we were ever gonna release his Kelly Questions… We just did !! It’s been almost a year since he went under the microscope of the ”Questions” and we were sure they’d gone bad but when we opened the box they’d gotten even better !!

    A Rhode Island resident and a great supporter of his local club the Providence Northern you can find them here: http://www.providencenorthern.com/

    Thanks Wayne for being a good sport… Enjoy !!

  • Episode 70: Dave Barraza

    Ever wonder what it’s like to be a great saxophone player, a movie house projectionist and a signal engineer with the Union Switch & Signal Company?

    We did too, so after searching high and low we found just the guy living on Long Island in Wading River, New York.

    Dave’s career in signaling began after correctly identifying a crescent wrench, and several years of working for the New York Transit Authority lead to his present career designing signal systems.

    He models the Long Island Railroad, loves volleyball and some day hopes for world peace. There’s lots to take in so listen carefully as Dave takes on an epic journey of his life. Enjoy!!

  • ViewerMail Flight #55

    So you’ve just realized you can’t say the letter “P” without separating your lips… And you embarrassed because you just tried it.

    Convinced fish are just aliens from outer space. Wish you hadn’t used your CA glue to keep your hair in place on date night??

    Well fear not chaps and chapettes, ViewerMail is here once again to make all those problems seem like a blessing after wasting your time listening to three of the most confusing people on the planet.

    So sit back with a big bowl road salt, a greasy class of warm bacon fat and enjoy !!

  • Episode 69: Nick Ozorak

    We here at the ole’ AML Network are huge fans of todays millennial railfans and model railroaders like Nick Ozorak. He has a great podcast called the “the Roundhouse” and was gracious enough to spend some time with us.

    Being raised on a steady diet of Canadian railroad equipment, O-scale trains and the weekends spent visiting tourist railroads with his father made him the railfan he is today.

    Nick’s podcast is full of adventures from across the railroad community, presented in the most entertaining and professional manner possible.  

    Enjoy!!

  • The Atkins Diet

    RSS… Really Simple Syndication… I didn’t know that !!

    So who do you call when you need to know stuff?? Apparently Chris Atkins, the star of Episode 23. Chris is here to help us understand life and other stuff.

    He’ll also gives us an update on his layout, traveling around the country to different operating sessions and everything you need to know about moving a helix.

    Turns out there’s no angry way to say bubbles.

    Enjoy !!

  • Patreon

    This podcast is about Patreon and a new direction for the podcast… Some of the regular gang is here to help Lionel explain what’s happening with his limited ability to harness the english language.

    ModelersLife has become quite successful (averaging almost 3,000 downloads per week) and rather than get involved with advertisers or make the show available on a subscription only basis this seemed like a good way to make more content available.

    So sit back and listen while Lionel trys to explain what’s happening and you end more confused than ever.

About a ModelersLife

From the publisher's feed

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. I've met so many interesting people in the hobby over the years I decided it would be fun to share their back stories with everyone else.
