The Crossing Gate Podcast

The Crossing Gate. Model railroad discussion.

Discussion of model railroading and operations.

Operations crew experience. How do we get people to be better at all of the assigned jobs? What are advantages and disadvantages to having an experienced crew member. Do you reward people for knowing all the jobs?

Ken Borowski MMR, Mike Jordan, and Thomas Gasior MMR, discuss these questions and more. We discuss this from a layout owners side and being the crew member with little, or much experience.

Our Sponsor this episode is the Six-Hour Clinic.

Plus the usual outtakes and extra stories at the end.
