Lonnie Bathurst, Scott Thornton & The 2024 St. Louis RPM

Saint Louis, Missouri - home of the Gateway Arch, and just about in the shadow of this national landmark resides the granddaddy of all railroad prototype modelers meets. Lonnie Bathurst, show producer, and frequent attendee Scott Thornton, tell us what makes the STLRPM a show that draws so many to the midwest in July to share models, knowledge, skills and, most importantly, comradery. Lonnie shares this year's show theme, highlights the must-see events and tells us what we need to know to attend and display models at the show.
