Talking Ops with Don Irace - Lessons From Operations with Heath Hurwitz
Once you've discovered operations and see what your railroad can do, there's no going back. This is the journey of Heath Hurwitz, known for his now Wednesday night Trains N Tech YouTube weekly livestreams on his Human[c]ity Junction channel, who discovered a whole new world in model railroading when he stepped outside of his Manhattan layout room and got involved with operating sessions in his area and beyond. Heath shares the lessons learned and how he's applied them to his Riverside Transfer layout, going from version 1.0 to 2.0 with continuous improvement driven by feedback and sound advice from those he's met and hosted at his layout.
