I happily watched ILTT on RFD when I was on DirecTV.  When I switched to AT&T uVerse, I got a better viewer experience overall for my television enjoyment.  But, alas, I lost my beloved RFD.

 

I have actually petitioned AT&T to carry RFD twice via RFD's option on its website.  But nothing has happened, yet.  

 

So I, too, am awaiting a web version in the meantime.

CLICK HERE to go to the "Find RFD-TV" page

  • Enter your zip code in the window below the button which says "Search For RFD-TV In Your Area." 
  • Click on the SEARCH button.
  • When the list of providers appears, click the "REQUEST" button next to your service provider. If there is no "REQUEST" button next to your service provider it means they already carry the RFD-TV channel.
  • After you enter your personal information you get the following reply:

 Thank you. Your request has been processed! The more requests we receive, the more motivated the cable company will be to launch RFD-TV and RFD HD so please feel free to pass this link on to your friends, family and neighbors!.

Hi Matt, 

 

Hop on over to rfdtv.com to check on your local listings. Would be interested to know if the showing times are different on the west cost. The times that Rich posted were given to me by the network and backed up by the east coast schedule. 

 

I spoke with Tom McComas this afternoon and if you would be interested in seeing a web based version of the program please let us know by replying to this thread. 

 

Thanks,

Derek

Important Program Schedule Note: I’ve been enjoying these train shows on the RFD-TV network on Direct TV for 10 years now and have noted that these shows and other regularly scheduled RFD-TV shows are occasionally preempted by livestock auctions.  In fact the upcoming Thursday, January 10th 4:00 EST showing of I Love Toy Trains is one show that will be preempted.  Fortunately the show repeats at 2:00 AM early Friday morning so if you don’t want to stay up that late and have a DVR, set it to record Direct TV channel 345 at 2:00 AM EST on Friday.  According to the program guide this episode is about the world’s largest O gauge model railroad.

 

I don’t know the schedules for RFD-TV on Direct TV in other time zones or on other satellite or cable systems so check your local program guide to see if the show is preempted on your provider.

 

HTH,

The Lionel Collectors Club of America (LCCA) is proud to be sponsoring this program.  Our volunteer LCCA video team is producing  a LCCA video commercial for each episode.  We believe this program (along with our commercials) will help promote the hobby and the LCCA.  We believe this will help introduce the hobby along with the club  to new people outside of the current hobbyist.  I believe  TM Books & Video  has been responsible for introducing Lionel and toy trains to millions of people all around the world.  This RFD TV program is another example of that effort. If you are able, please watch the program.

Got one recorded last night, I love toy trains.  I did the auto record any time it comes up.  And the other show that is on also.  I got so much loading up on the DVR, Ill hae to prioritize it.    Direct TV also has a new DVR that allows more recording, but they dont offer it to existing customers now unless you pay out 300!  but I like it better than comcast.  they are terrible to deal with.

I'll bet my cable company won't have it. I can't even get a channel I see advertised that they are supposed to have. all I get from the cable company guy is "I never heard of that channel. time go go satallit.
