  • Great Podcast - encouraged me to build!

    This is a great podcast - found it about a week ago - am already caught up. Great format with variety in the episodes. Sam and James area obviously very knowledgeable in the area and have some interesting discussion topics as well as guests. Whilst its designed to give you some relief from your model railway - it’s definitely encouraged me to build one!
