Alternative to the NMRA Master Model Railroader?

[nachoman]

I agree with what stein said:

"The only meaningful (IMO) definition of a master model railroader is a model railroader who inspires and teaches other model railroaders. "

If other people are looking at what you did for inspiration you are propagating the hobby. The metric by which inspiration is measured is in the eye of the inspired. In the sense of Stein's statement, perhaps the only things that ultimately qualify are sharing your modeling with others, and time.
