Season 3 : Episode 4 Railfan Update

Saison 3 · Épisode 4

dimanche 19 avril 2026 • Durée 01:26:40

Billy and Dan return with a railfan update episode of StackTalk, covering a busy stretch of news across the hobby.

The episode focuses on a major summer of steam, including Big Boy’s national tour and a number of other high-profile excursions. Along the way, they talk about the realities of chasing, planning, and missing out, and whether this moment represents a high point for mainline steam activity.

They also discuss Amtrak’s shifting equipment strategy, infrastructure upgrades like the Portal Bridge, and broader changes affecting passenger rail and preservation. The conversation touches on the growing move from coal to oil-fired steam and what that signals for the future.

A mix of current events, context, and railfan perspective.

Season 3 : Episode 3 "Funnel Talk" Ships and Ocean Liners

Saison 3 · Épisode 3

mercredi 1 avril 2026 • Durée 01:56:21

For April Fools, StackTalk becomes Funnel Talk.

Billy and Dan (now the “Keel Brothers”) talk about ships: why they like them, where that interest comes from, and how it traces back through family history tied to shipbuilding in Scotland. The conversation moves between ocean liners like the RMS Queen Mary, naval history, and the technical side of how ships are measured and understood.

It’s a loose, slightly absurd detour from the usual train-focused format, but not as far off as it might seem.

Saison 3 · Épisode 1

dimanche 1 février 2026 • Durée 01:05:16

They discuss the logistics of the trip, exhibiting T-Trak modules with the Upload Express Modelers, and walking through one of the largest collections of operating model layouts in North America. Along the way, they talk about what distinguishes Amherst from smaller regional shows and why its value lies more in conversation and connection than in purchases.

In this episode, the Video Brother (Dan) and the Photo Brother (Bill) discuss their current model railroad layouts they are working on. Dan shares his progress on his "Spaghetti & Western" layout, which is a big spaghetti bowl of N scale Kato Unitrack that will roughly simulate something like the NEC, involving 3-4 levels of track. Bill shares his version of the classic "Inglenook Shunting Puzzle" (aka a switching puzzle for us yanks), which is designed to be a small, simple layout that can easily be transported and is being built on a door! The brothers couldn't be working on more opposite train layouts!
