​Shane "the Young Gun" Mason -
​A very active model railroader with his own YouTube page posting all kinds of train related videos at:

https://www.youtube.com/user/thebrakeman17

Shane lives in the Kansas City area and he's  a member of the Heartland N-trak Club. Most recently he began work as an assistant editor at Model Railroad News and has already been responsible for several covers.

He'd also like us to mention he's a huge Pittsburgh Penquins fan but we ran out of room.

Peter Borcherds -
Peter is a Secret Agent for MI5 in the UK (0018 to be exact). Well, actually not really, but he’d like to be. Peter is AML SuperFan No. 18, originally from South Africa, but now living in the UK, in a country village 20 miles west of Heathrow Airport near London.

He has been a model railroader since the age of 5, but more importantly an N scaler for the last 18 years (& proud of it!), modelling the BNSF railroad, specifically the Rochelle area.

Peter is a keen AML fan & supporter and regular contributor to the AML Facebook page and has appeared on the Podcast on numerous occasions.

Adam Pinales -
Growing up in a large hobby shop in the heart of the Utah's Wasatch mountains, surrounded by a family of professional railroaders, it is no wonder Adam ended up where he is today. He started his career at the Heber Valley RR maintaining and operating steam locomotives.

​Graduating to modern railroading with the BNSF at the ripe old age of 18, and promoting to Engineer the following year. After many moves, and a few RR's later, he ended up back in his home state with the Utah Railway, and finally back to a conductor with Amtrak.
​
​Keeping close to his roots, he continued his love affair with the machines of steam through various tourist railroads and restoration groups, and finally building his own locomotives in 2.5" scale. He has built an outdoor 7.5" gauge railroad around his house, a F scale garden railroad, as well as a N scale basement empire.
​Bringing all this excitement to the AML network in the fall of 17', episode #99 was his first appearance, and certainly will not be his last!
