Thanks for Making Rail Info Fun

Each episode I've heard has not only been informative, but Don and his guests have the ability to present different aspects of railroading in an exciting and passionate manner. You can't help but listen and feel the excitement they have for the rail industry.

Difference Makers- Joe Schieszler Sr.

Great Podcast on Rescar early days. Joe Sr provides a lot of words of wisdom that would be good for the young folks in our industry to hear. He really is a good man, with a great business mind. Well done, Don.

Bridging the Gap Between Industry and Public

ARP is the best podcast to come out of 2023. Whether you are in the industry, a railroad enthusiast, or part of the general public that relies on rail in the US to live, the conversations on this show are entertaining and informative. 10 out of 10

I Love it!

I started listening to a ton of podcasts this year, and this is definitely one of my favorite ones I’ve discovered! It’s just really cool to learn it out of the railroad industries. I love it! Seeing a whole different side of the industry! Everyone should check it out.

I'm Inspired!

I liked the (Pikes Peak Cog Railway) episode a lot. It actually inspired a spontaneous trip to Colorado in a few weeks.

Excellent Job on Economy and Rail

Have enjoyed all the podcast episodes to date. I particularly liked the latest episode with Todd Tranausky of FTR. Very simple explanation of economic drivers and the impacts on rail. Would like to see this on a regular basis. Great job both Don and Todd. Thanks.

The podcast we didn’t realize we needed

It’s a podcast in a league of their own and they set out and accomplish what they’re after: Educating listeners.

Railroad Positivity in a Podcast

Rail is a part of America's fabric and Don is determined to keep telling its story. Each podcast episode takes the listener deep into that episode's topic. Required listening for all rail enthusiasts.

I Learned A Lot!

I just finished Episode 5. I loved it! I learned a lot about supply and demand. Inland ports make a lot of sense, how it's all connected. My favorite part was how Denson described how it use to be with products being touched many times and the product could and did drop in quality as a result, versus the container shipping now being a one-touch operation.

It was Excellent!

It was excellent! (episode 4) It was all good man, I got choked up a few times. My top 2 care package needs were always cigars and beef jerky.

One of the Best I've Ever Heard

Wow!!! You guys did a fantastic job (episode 3). Definitely Mayoral stamp of approval. Loved it! It was very well organized. I thought it was an 11 on content, delivery and execution. One of the best I've ever heard.

Informative

I really do enjoy how the podcast kicks off! Beyond that, the podcast is full of valuable information in a patriotic setting focused on the ‘All Things Rail’ scenario. After each of the 1st 2 episodes I’m left wondering what’s next and when?

Good intro to current issues in the railroad industry

This podcast is a good introduction to the U.S. railroad industry through the lens of current events. Don and his guests do a good job of explaining certain aspects of the industry without overloading listeners with railroad jargon. I’m a lifelong railroader and have learned new things from this podcast. Give it a listen!
