Craig Martyn is the President of BLMA Models, a company he founded in 2000. Now at age 23, he is
currently enrolled at Cal State University Fullerton and majoring in Advertising with a Minor in
Business Administration.
Craig's love of model trains started at an early age as he quickly took to N Scale. More often than
not, he was unable to locate the kinds of accurate accessories he wanted in order to make his
locomotives and layouts as realistic as possible. This lack of numerous products created a niche
that Craig worked hard to fill.
After learning the aspects of the model railroad industry by working for several different companies,
he established BLMA Models. By having all products designed and tested in house, the company is able
to manufacture products that make ultimate realism in model railroading possible.
Craig keeps a constant influence over all aspects of BLMA Models. From CAD designing to bookkeeping,
from advertising to public relations, he also continues to participate in the hobby he loves. Craig
is a member of the Orange County N-Gineers, a modular N-Track club located in Orange County, California
