Andy Sperandeo has been an editorial employee of Model Railroader Magazine since 1979 He is currently executive editor after being the magazine's editor previously. He has also written a few books on Model Railroading such as Easy Model Railroad Wiring, The Model Railroader's Guide to Freight Yards and a few other books. Sperando hosted a video once called Model Railroads In Action: 5 Layouts From Great Model Railroads Magazine which is a rare video to find. He is also an operater on Model Railroader's Club Layout the MR&T (Milwaukee, Racine, and Troy Railroad). He was on two episodes of Tracks Ahead. One which was the MR&T and the other dedicating John Allen's Gorre & Daphetid. When he was in the U.S. Army back in the 1960s, he was a frequent operator on the Gorre & Daphetid. As a matter of fact, one of John Allen's locomotives, No. 34, a 4-10-0 that John kitbashed from parts, resides in his office. As of 2003 on modelrailroader.com, it said that he was building a model railroad on the AT&SF (Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe). However there are not too many pictures of his layout he is constructing.
