Thanks to all our repeat and new customers at the Railroad Hobby Show in snowy Springfield this past weekend! Our sales topped last year’s despite a substantially smaller “crowd” Sunday. At the Hartford airport now with fingers crossed the flights are still a go!

For the second year in a row, we were back at the St. Louis RPM in Collinsville, Illinois. ATLP host Ray Arnott made his rounds, talking to numerous attendees of the show and learning why they made the trek out to the midwest to partake in this outstanding event. In part one, we talk to Michael Landis, Art from AO Rail Model Train Products, Dave Oppedisano, Chuck Stancil at Logic Rail Technologies, Michael Ostertag from Second Section Podcast, Kevin Norman from Notch 8 Customs, Joey Giunto and Amy Penny, Isaac Fabris and Tom Garza from ScaleSigns.com.

If you saw us at the recent NMRA National Train Show in Novi, MI or at the St. Louis RPM you know that we sold out of our Light EFX-16 product and related items. Good news - we've got more in stock now! To say that the clinic I presented (on-layout special effects lighting) had a positive impact on sales would be a gross understatement! 🙂

After 3600 miles of driving we're back from the NMRA National Convention, National Train Show and the St. Louis RPM meet. Thanks to all our repeat and new customers for two very successful shows! The clinic I gave at both events (focused on our Light EFX-16 product) were well attended and well received - so much that we're working hard to get more of that product line restocked ASAP!

The NMRA convention and National Train Show were both great! The St. Louis RPM is our next stop.
