Podcasts about railroads

If you're one of those who think the hobby is dying, have a listen to this podcast. In his early 20's, Kinzer Hurt is already making a big impact on the model railroading hobby with a smaller approach; shelf layouts of short line railroads that allow him to drill into super detailing and cover a variety of railroads he's come to admire through in-person and virtual experiences. Later, I ask Kinzer what younger modelers are looking for and get his take on what's needed to get the next generation involved in the community. Learn more about this episode on our website:aroundthelayout.com/196Thank you to our episode sponsor, Spring Creek Model Trains:https://www.springcreekmodeltrains.com/Thank you to our episode sponsor, Tully Models:https://tullymodels.comThank you to our episode sponsor, Home Shops:https://homeshops.net/

It was a great time and we had the opportunity to play a bunch of group games, eat a ton of food, and test our Halloween knowledge through Wits and Wagers, what a classic. We even got the chance to do a local constructed deck Star Wars Unlimited tournament that sucked in a bunch of new players. So, in a way, we were like a bunch of vampires and brought them into the fold Magical Athlete is a riotous racing game where fantasy characters with wildly asymmetric powers compete in unpredictable sprints. It's light, fast, dice rolling game that will have hilarious moments throughout the game—perfect for groups who love a bit of chaos. Dirt & Dust, by contrast, is a deck builder that leans into the solitaire play with players trying to solve their own challenges while not really being impacted by others. Then there's Railroad Tiles, a spatial puzzle that rewards clever planning and route optimization. It's a satisfying blend of tactical tile placement and long-term strategy, ideal for fans of games like Carcassonne or Metro. Finally, Umami brings a unique twist to the table: a culinary-themed game that's all about balancing flavors and crafting harmonious dishes. With elegant mechanics and a soothing aesthetic, it's a game that feels like a warm bowl of ramen on a rainy day. Together, these four titles form a kind of tasting menu for board gamers—each one distinct, memorable, and worth savoring. Whether you're in the mood for laughter, clever puzzles, or thematic immersion, this quartet offers a delicious spread of experiences. Just like the buffet table at BooBQ.

The Long Island Railroad's “Cannon Ball” made its first trip to Montauk from Jamaica, NY in 1890, and operated until the 1970s. The continuous service was provided on weekday afternoons from Long Island City until 1951 when service was then provided from Penn Station. Originally, the Cannon Ball was a train composed entirely of parlor cars – the epitome of luxury – and many regarded the Cannon Ball as a prestigious way to arrive in the Hamptons. But the real conversation of the Cannonball starts with the history of the LI Rail Road. Most of the effort out here was in the 1890's, and a lot of it grew out of one man's dream, Austin Corbin, who was a very wealthy banker in New York. He became President of the Long Island Railroad in 1881. As soonas he got onto this job, he had a lot of problems because he inherited a railroad that was bankrupt and actually had been formerly three different railroads. Once he put those together after about a year or so, he turned to the fulfillment of his dream and that was, not necessarily to build a railroad to the end of Long Island. His objective was to shorten the distance by water, over the ocean, between England and New York.

In this episode I explore some early history of Albion, Michigan. I also cover early railroad history and a riot.For more information on Michael Delaware, visit:https://michaeldelaware.com

The move was accomplished by Dodson House Moving from the company's location on Southwest Loop 410 near S.H. 16 in San Antonio. According to San Antonio Railroad Heritage Museum President Gary Rodriguez, the job took only about an hour and a half.

We've said it before, and we'll say it again: the Texas Railroad Commission has nothing to do with railroads. It's called that because the petroleum sector and their allies in the Texas Legislature would just as soon you didn't know that the Commission does regulate energy matters in Texas - matters of immense financial and environmental consequence, which under Republican control over the last 30 years, has basically meant a regulatory rubber stamp for that industry.Houston State Rep. Jon Rosenthal, an expert in the field himself, is looking to make a change at the Texas Railroad Commission, and he joined us for a talk to explain why and how he'd like to achieve that goal.Learn more about Rep. Rosenthal and his campaign at https://jonrosenthaltx.com/.Thanks for listening! Learn more about Progress Texas and how you can support our ongoing work at https://progresstexas.org/.

CTL Script/ Top Stories of October 24th Publish Date: October 24th   Pre-Roll: From the Ingles Studio Welcome to the Award-Winning Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast  Today is Friday, October 24th and Happy Birthday to Kevin Kline I’m Peyton Spurlock and here are the stories Cherokee is talking about, presented by Times Journal Cherokee County approves contract to build two fire stations Jordan Road to be closed Nov. 7-10 for railroad crossing work Ball Ground investigating complaint about email from council member Plus, Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sweet tooths We’ll have all this and more coming up on the Cherokee Tribune-Ledger Podcast, and if you’re looking for Community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  Commercial: Ingles Markets 9 STORY 1: Cherokee County approves contract to build two fire stations Cherokee County’s getting two brand-new fire stations, and it’s about time. On Oct. 21, the Board of Commissioners gave the green light to a $17 million deal with Spratlin Construction to replace Fire Station 5 on East Cherokee Drive and Fire Station 29 on Cumming Highway. The current setups? Let’s just say they’re overdue for an upgrade. Station 5, built for volunteers back in the day, now crams six full-time firefighters into a shared bunk room. Over at Station 29, firefighters are working out of a temporary manufactured home. The new stations will have proper bunks, fitness areas, and space for equipment—finally. Construction kicks off summer 2026. STORY 2: Jordan Road to be closed Nov. 7-10 for railroad crossing work Heads up, drivers: Jordan Road will be closed at the railroad crossing near Highway 372 from Nov. 7-10, according to Cherokee County officials. The closure is just south of Nelson, so plan ahead. Detours? Yep, they’ve got you covered. Northbound traffic on Jordan Road should take Old Nelson Road, then Old Canton Road, Commerce Lane, and finally reconnect with Highway 372. Southbound? Stick to Highway 372, turn onto Commerce Lane, then Old Canton Road, and loop back via Old Nelson Road. It’s a bit of a maze, but temporary. Questions? Call Cherokee County Public Works at 770-345-5842. STORY 3: Ball Ground investigating complaint about email from council member The city of Ball Ground is looking into a complaint about an email sent by Councilmember Annette Homiller to a city employee—an email that’s stirred up quite a bit of controversy. On Sept. 24, Homiller, whose husband Dan is running for mayor against fellow Councilmember Dennis Nelson, emailed the employee from her personal account. In it, she asked who he was supporting in the mayoral race and brought up a past real estate deal, even suggesting there might be financial motives behind his support for Nelson. “I can’t think of any other reason why you would support Dennis over Dan,” she wrote, adding a postscript: “Dan does not know that I sent this.” The employee has since filed a “hostile work environment” complaint, and the city is investigating. Homiller admitted to sending the email, calling it a “poorly written” mistake based on misinformation. “It was a bad idea from the start, and I deeply regret it,” she said, adding that she’s apologized to the mayor, her colleagues, and others involved. Her husband, Dan, defended her, saying, “She made a mistake—who hasn’t hit send on an email they wish they could take back?” Meanwhile, Nelson’s campaign confirmed the complaint in an Oct. 9 Facebook post, calling for a full investigation to protect city employees from political pressure. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.874.3200 for more info.    We’ll be right back. Break: COBB FALL FESTIVAL STORY 4: Woodstock council considers regulations for e-bikes  Woodstock might soon pump the brakes on e-bikes—or at least figure out where and how they can be ridden. At an Oct. 20 work session, Community Development Director Melissa Sigmund asked the City Council and Mayor Michael Caldwell to weigh in on regulating e-bikes, which combine pedaling with battery-powered motors. Complaints? Oh, there’ve been plenty. Here is what Mayor Michael Caldwell had to say about the e-bikes. MAYOR VO Sigmund explained the three e-bike tiers: Tiers 1 and 2 max out at 20 mph and are treated like regular bikes. Tier 3? They can hit 28 mph without pedaling, and that’s where things get tricky. Councilman David Potts said he’s seen modified e-bikes going even faster. Here is what Councilman David Potts had to say on this issue. COUNCILMAN VO Sigmund floated ideas: allowing kids under 12 to ride on sidewalks, banning Tier 3 e-bikes from trails, and requiring all bikes to yield to pedestrians. Education and signage would be key, she added. No decisions yet, but the council plans to revisit the issue soon. STORY 5: Cherokee County Football Power Rankings - Week 11  The Cherokee County football power rankings are in, and as Week 11 kicks off, there’s plenty to unpack. Sequoyah (7-1, 4-1)The Chiefs are rolling. Two straight wins since their only loss (to River Ridge), and now they face a winless Pope team. Let’s be real—another W feels inevitable. But the real showdown? The finale against Creekview, with the region title likely on the line. River Ridge (6-2, 3-2)The Knights have a huge test this week against Creekview. A win could shake up the playoff race, but QB Hunter Lockerman’s health is a question mark. Can Camden Cox carry the load? Creekview (4-4, 4-1)Don’t let the record fool you—this team’s dangerous. Backup QB Landon Barnes was flawless in their blowout of Pope. But with River Ridge and Sequoyah up next, the Grizzlies have a brutal road ahead. Woodstock (5-3, 3-2)The Wolverines are clinging to playoff hopes. A win at Riverwood this week is crucial before their finale against Sprayberry. Coach Dan Devine knows what’s at stake: “It’s all on the line.” Cherokee (1-8, 0-5)The Warriors showed fight against North Cobb, led by Brandon Hamilton’s 138 yards and two TDs. They’ll look to close out their season—and say goodbye to Tommy Baker Field—with a win over Marietta. Etowah (3-6, 1-4)It’s been a tough stretch for the Eagles, but they’ve already surpassed last year’s win total. A victory at North Cobb in their finale would be a solid step forward under new coach Brett Vavra. And now here is Leah McGrath from Ingles Markets on sweet tooths Commercial: We’ll have closing comments after this.   COMMERCIAL: Ingles Markets 9   SIGN OFF –   Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Cherokee Tribune Ledger Podcast.

After dealing with catastrophic climate change,  flooded roadbed, improper routing through the transportation museum, the new crew finally caught up to the ViewerMail train just outside downtown Pagosa Springs. We'd like to bring you some of the finest podcast entertainment the model railroad industry has to offer, but once again the crew at the AML Network reached the lofty goal of chronically disappointing.

In July, 1912, a joyful Fourth of July outing on a mountain turned into a tragedy when a crowded passenger coach collided head-on with a massive coal train on the Wilpen Branch of the Ligonier Valley Railroad in Pennsylvania. The wooden coach was crushed between engines, killing 27 and injuring over 30, many of them young children.This week, Steve and Rod tell the story of that crash and the haunting aftermath in the town of Ligonier.Be sure to subscribe to the Stories podcast if you haven't done so already.  You'll find us wherever you get your favorite podcasts.Thanks for listening.

Peter Harnik, co-founder of the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy and the Center for City Park Excellence at the Trust for Public Land and executive producer of the documentary From Rails to Trails, talks about his work spearheading the movement to convert abandoned railbeds into multi-use trails, 26,000 miles so far, and the new documentary about it. 

The new musical "Mexodus" uses hip-hop to tell the true story of the Underground Railroad that ran south to Mexico instead of north to Canada. Creators and stars Brian Quijada and Nygel D. Robinson discuss the show, which runs through November 1.

In this week's MBA Admissions podcast we began by discussing the current state of the MBA admissions season. Last week, Harvard released all its Round 1 interview invites. This week, UNC / Kenan Flagler and Georgia / Terry have Round 1 application deadlines. Cambridge / Judge and SMU / Cox have Round 2 application deadlines, and London Business School and IESE are scheduled to release their Round 1 interview invites. Graham highlighted several upcoming events being hosted by Clear Admit in October, including a Real Humans series and a series focused on MBA programs in different regions of the United States. Signups for all these events are here, https://www.clearadmit.com/events Graham also highlighted our next livestream AMA, scheduled for Tuesday, October 28; here's the link to Clear Admit's YouTube channel: https://bit.ly/cayoutubelive. Graham noted two recently published MBA admissions articles. The first focuses on the ongoing topic of H-1B visas, and the second summarizes all the top MBA programs' in-person events for October. Graham also highlighted two admissions tips that focus on the key interview questions all MBA candidates should be ready for, and a best practice for preparing (hint: don't script your responses!). Finally, Graham highlighted a Real Humans piece that focuses on MBA students in Wharton's Class of 2027. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected three ApplyWire entries: This week's first MBA admissions candidate is trying to use the MBA to transition from a transportation-related role to a career in consumer-packaged goods. They also want to switch geographies within the U.S. This week's second MBA applicant is a chemical engineering graduate who now works in Wealth Management. We worry their 655 GMAT does not fully represent their aptitude. The final MBA candidate has a very strong profile, overall, but their post MBA goals need more development. This episode was recorded in Paris, France and Cornwall, England. It was produced and engineered by the fabulous Dennis Crowley in Philadelphia, USA. Thanks to all of you who've been joining us and please remember to rate and review this show wherever you listen!

For those of you that don't know our very own Marcus Neubacher is the Director of Administration for the North Carolina Transportation Museum and every few years or so he'll get the chance to attend a convention for the Heritage Rail Alliance where the free exchange of information among members and working industry professionals is available. This year the convention was held in Durango Colorado and we hear the ole' AML Network, decided that we'd need to hear as much of the trip as possible. Of course it took us a while to get there, but eventually we managed to cover a wide range of subjects and produce a podcast well worth listening to. Enjoy!!

Andrew Langer, Director of the CPAC Foundation's Center for Regulatory Freedom, joins The Steve Gruber Show to explain why conservatives are backing the freight railroad merger and how they believe it will fuel Trump's America First agenda. Langer breaks down the economic and regulatory benefits of the merger, why it matters for U.S. manufacturing and supply chains, and how this move aligns with a broader vision of strengthening American industry and jobs.

Old friends can be the best kind of friends, those folks you haven't talked to for several years and then strike up a conversation as if you'd seen them yesterday. That's what this podcast is about, catching up with our old friend Serge Lebel from Sept-Iles Quebec on the north shore of the St. Lawrence River. We first met Serge several years ago when we discovered his O-Scale two rail layout known as the CN Sanmore Subdivision, a fantastic well detailed model railroad that is slowly developing into one of the finest layouts in North America. It's a great podcast with lots of information and one more sure you'll enjoy.

Matt Ehret and Ghost take listeners on a global tour of intrigue, from the fallout of Charlie Kirk's assassination to the shifting alliances shaping the Middle East and Eurasia. They break down Trump's fiery UN speech, the odd “malfunctions” that marred it, and his high-stakes meetings with Arab leaders and Erdogan. The discussion moves into Israel's maneuvers in Syria, the looming specter of a land war with Iran, and the deeper game being played with NATO and Turkey. From Kazakhstan's record-breaking $4 billion rail deal with the U.S. to China and Russia's nuclear and infrastructure partnerships, the hosts trace how railroads, energy, and geopolitics are fusing into a new map of power. Along the way, they expose the dangers of transhumanist ideology, AI “saints,” and psychological operations designed to warp faith and culture. This episode ties together history, current events, and the battle for the future in the style only Breaking History delivers.

Episode: 1440 Steam engines in England during the 18th century.  Today, a look at steam engines in 18th-century England.

Located just 10 miles west of Horseshoe Curve the “Station Inn” is a unique bed-and-breakfast alongside the old Pennsylvania Railroad mainline. Built in 1866 only a dozen years after the completion of the “Curve,” it became a sanctuary for weary travelers headed east or west and a summer retreat for many folks that lived in the Pittsburgh area. Run by Alex Lang and his wife Leah, it's become their passion of carrying on the tradition of Tom Davis who originally turned the inn into a rail fanning hot-spot in 1993. Tom was a dear family friend of the Langs and when he passed away, it seemed only natural for them to take over and continue on the tradition that had been started so many years earlier. Alex has been on the podcast before, and this episode is just as entertaining and informative as ever. Enjoy!!
