I heard from a fellow model railroader that the hobby lost one of the greats last week. Hal Carstens passed away peacefully at the age of 84. For those who have subscribed to Model Railroad Craftsman know his work. Hal owned Carstens Publications for many years and was one of the hobbies great originals. I was fortunate to meet and listen to Hal at the LSR convention a few weeks ago. He really told the story about model railroading and its history of from his viewpoint because he was there. My personal thoughts and prayers go out to his family, he will be missed.
His obit is located at the Carstens Web site.
