    Jan 27 2025
    ATLP Rewind - Originally Released April 23, 2024

    They say "It's all in the details" and that's what Kevin Norman from Notch 8 Customs is all about. Kevin stops by to tell us how he developed an interest in DCC installs and customizing locomotives and rolling stock into a growing part-time side hustle. Additionally, he shares his dream for a layout that captures the rich history of railroading in the Chicagoland area in the 1960's.

    Jan 21 2025
    It's been almost a year since ScaleTrains President Shane Wilson has joined us on Around The Layout Podcast, so we had a lot of catching up to do! Shane tells about the events that occured since our last chat, including checking off a bunch more states on the ScaleTrains Road Trip, attending train shows in the United States and Mexico, an amazing amount of new releases, and how the model railroading community helped ScaleTrains provide much needed aid to those affected by Hurricane Helene. At the end of the show, Shane and I announce a HUGE ScaleTrains x ATLP giveaway - 5 times bigger than last year that ties the past to the present.
