What does Harry Potter and railfanning have in common, well nothing really, unless of course you add in an Ohio native named Adam Matthews, railroad preservationist, photographer and model railroader who was inspired by his grandfather, a retired vice superintendent of shipping at US steel in Lorain, Ohio.

We've been wanting to interview Adam for quite sometime now, after stumbling across his website "Train Wizard Productions," a must see for anyone even remotely interested in trains, model railroading and great photography. With more than 150,000 followers on Instagram, Adam is a preservationist heavily involved with the Nickel Plate Historical Society, Mad River and NKP Museum, plus the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society. He's also got a great O-Gauge 3-Rail layout. There's so much information in this podcast by the time you're finished you'll be dizzier than a trout in a blender. Enjoy!!
