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.

Difference Makers Episode - Joe Sr.
Check out Don Walsh and his American Railroading Podcast. Don is an inquisitive host with interesting and relevant topics in rail. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the episode with Joe Schieszler, Sr, founder of Rescar. Nice work, 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.

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!

Great podcast!
From the moment I tuned in to the American railroading podcast, I was impressed with the level of detail and passion that Don brings to his episodes. Don's extensive knowledge of American railroading history is apparent, and his ability to convey that information in an engaging and entertaining manner is truly impressive. His voice is clear, confident, and articulate, making it a pleasure to listen to him discuss the intricate workings of the American railroad system. His voice is also imbued with warmth and enthusiasm, making me feel like I'm listening to a friend who is genuinely excited to share his knowledge and insights.

I Enjoyed It
I enjoyed it. At a time when the media seems to be hot on train derailments, the truth about what HAZMAT is needs to be addressed. Perhaps an episode of train derailment causes and the technology that has improved track safety should be in order.
