Props to you, Craig.  Good thing they found the worst picture of you possible!

Keep it going.  One day you'll be able to hire all of us!  You know, Quality Assurance!  ... and beer testers...

Good job, Craig!

On some other forums the curmudgeons will say that the hobby's glory days have passed and that as the old captains of the hobby die off, so too will the hobby itself.  Bulls**t.  Not with guys like you picking up the flag and pushing farther into the fray.

Keep it up!!!

Way to go, Craig!  I'm retiring in less than two weeks after 22 years as a judge and am starting my third career teaching at the University of Illinois and part-time private practice but I could be persuaded to move to California if you need a flunky!

Good to know that the hobby is in capable young hands.

Chuck is glad to know that I'm still working after retirement so that he can continue to be my pusher ;)
Best regards,

Roger

I am gobsmacked of your success . You deserve triple credit points for early age coupled with still being in school . I don't know of anybody that has got such a deserved toe hold in this hobby at your age . I hope for N scales sake , some big wig at some firm doesn't entice you and your talents away from us .

Good luck, Craig.

There is a worse photo of him, if I remember correctly ;)

Way to go - nomination is well deserved and you should be congratulated !
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

Congrats to Craig. I love the energy that Craig and BLMA brings to the hobby.

The winning idea didn't seem anywhere near as interesting as BLMA.
