Title: Passing of Hal Carstens
Post by: ebtnut on June 24, 2009, 01:22:04 PM
Got word today that Hal Carstens, publisher of Railroad Model Craftsman and Railfan and Railroad magazines, passed away on Tuesday.  He was in his 80's.  RIP to a pioneer in the railroad press field.

He was a good man, and had a great knowledge of railroads and modeling.
