Model Railroad Inspiration and Technique | Model Railroad Academy-- Modeler Dean Freytag describes himself as having “a big ego.” He credits that as one of the reasons why he took a different approach to the model railroading hobby than others. He decided to model the steel industry, which can be rather difficult due to the lack of parts sold at stores. Big-box stores typically don’t sell all the parts needed for steel mills. Dean had to fabricate them all himself. Train Information, Trains For Sale, Big Ego, Steel Mill, Model Hobbies
