Just iterate over the lines (file or string) and retrieve the lines from 
the wanted line, until the line you're not interested in anymore. 
something like this:

data = """aaa
model 0
bbb
acb
model 1
ccc"""

result = []
first_reached = False
for line in data.split('\n'):
     if line == 'model 0':
         first_reached = True
     if line == 'model 1':
         break
     if first_reached:
         result.append(line)
print result

Cheers,
Timo
