Midday Modeler 03.02.2022 — In this installment of Midday Modeler, David Popp gives a hearty update on the progress on the Jones Island portion of the MR&T HO scale layout along with Cody Grivno. Later in this Midday Modeler 03.02.2022 episode, David visits the Model Railroader workshop to talk with Classic Trains Editor Brian Schmidt and MR’s Steven Otte about their latest progress on their kitbash challenge projects.
Jones Island is the focus of MR staff work for the Rehab My Railroad series on Trains.com, and also a planned future series of articles in print.
The kitbash challenge this year features N scale and HO scale models from Walthers. The models are based on a Union Pacific depot prototype.
Midday Modeler is a new, regular video segment, recorded live and unscripted at Kalmbach Media beginning in February 2022.
The segment features Kalmbach Media staff modeling and talking about model railroads in a casual format. It is unscripted and broadcast live via Facebook on Wednesdays at 1 p.m. Central time each week. Anyone who sees the video on Facebook can comment and ask questions, or just say “hi!”.
Shortly after the Facebook live stream, the video is taken down from Facebook and posted to Trains.com where it is available only to Model Railroader Video Plus members and Trains.com Unlimited Members.
