The trials and tribulations of a decidedly overwhelmed buffoon in the world of model trains, featuring HO scale Central European Era VI trains. The definitive "HOW NOT TO" video channel, hosted by me and my various personalities. In the end, it's all about having fun... and I am having fun. I just love running my trains.

The name of the channel comes from both the sense of feeling an outsider because of and within this hobby and a play on all the "Insider" named shows and magazines.

This channel features 4 Elements:
1. The Live Streams
2. The Model Train Outsider- which features the occasional progress on my Layout based on the city of Delmenhorst.
3. The Märklin Outsider- featuring the Märklin System of tracks and control and Märklin-related products.
4. Lots of train-related comedy bits.

As this channel appeals to folks from many lands with many languages, I often keep things simplistic to avoid translation issues. They still happen though.
