Was there a mid-day modeler on 3/1? Nothing posted on Trains.com yet

I'm not sure.  I tried watching on facebook and got nowhere.  Also tried on trains.com at the proper time and also got nowhere.  Then I tried later and watched something that I thought was new as it seemed to be a followup to previous live cams, but I can't be sure.

I know from a previous episode that they did a show a day in advance, but I don't remember any previous notification that was going to occur.

Most frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They do seem to have issues at times with the live feed on Facebook, maybe technical difficulties. Notice would be nice

I thought they stopped doing it on Facebook. It's available for free on the Trains.com Video site at the time it's filmed. Anyway, it's been posted.

I am a Trains.com member so I normally watch Midday Modeller a day or two after the live broadcast. The Feb 22 edition was filmed on Feb 21. During the show David explained a major winter storm was predicted for the 22. They expected many people would be working from home that Wednesday. I am happy to see MM back and am pleased with the NEW Trains.com

I’m also a member, and I also normally view later.

But I had a question that I thought was relevant and was hoping to get it answered live, thus the reason for wanting to watch it live.  They don’t seem to reply to any none live questions.

And yes, I did see the pre-bad weather show explanation.  However, telling viewers that the show was done after the fact is kind of telling a passenger that the scheduled train departed early.
