Huell Howser RIP
Posted by vsmith on Tuesday, January 8, 2013 12:26 AM
We here in LA lost a true TV icon today, Huell Howser, host of KCETs Visiting and California Gold, passed away today. He was 67.

Most folks in the hobby remember Howser from his shows visit to the Pomona Fairplex Layout, which is still one of the most popular episodes on the series.

   Have fun with your trains

He introduced many of us to places to visit we would never have found on our own.
