William Sampson - Father & Son and the Great Northern and Milwaukee Road

Written By Ray Arnott

William Sampson - Father & Son
and the Great Northern and Milwaukee Road

With Father's Day less than a week away, we got the father/son duo of William Sampson and William Sampson together to share their bond over model railroading. William Sr. tells us how railroad is in the Sampson blood, with ties to railroading in several generations. He then tells us how he got started in the hobby, with influences from his past leading him to model the Great Northern in 1970. He then shares how his model railroading journey got even better with the arrival of William Jr, who shares his memories of his father's layout and the many lessons and great times he shared with his dad.

Check out the SOO The Milwaukee Road YouTube channel for wildly entertaining videos on both William's layouts
