Ed and gang, Take a look at the Oct. issue of RMC, and you'll see my S Scale kerosene refinery featured.
A year ago RMC ran a cover story about my layout. I admit my layout is narrow gauge, but it is S Scale, and except for the gauge of the track, etc, everything else on the layout would fit just fine on any layout on this list. What it comes down to is the quality of scenery, structures, trains, and really, the entire presentation. A good layout, well photographed, will make it into any of the major model railroad magazines, regardless of scale. In fact, the RMC and MR editors have told me they wished they got some decent S Scale photo stories. But, sadly, they rarely do... So, as a substitute, they'll accept my meager narrow gauge layout. What's needed for S to flourish, is an overall improvement in modeling, scenery, photography, etc by everyone. Then, once you've raised your standards,, submit your stories. The magazines will run them, if they exhibit a high standard, matching the many good/great HO layouts we constantly see. My S Scale scenery DVD's will help, which you can check out at my website - http://www.paulscoles.com Now don't go blasting me for this. I just speak the truth, and from the heart. :-) Paul Scoles --- ed_loizeaux <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > --- In [email protected], "Edward Loizeaux" > <Loizeaux@> wrote: > > > how many of the hundreds and hundreds of > > > guys on this List have actually submitted an S > scale photo (much > less an > > > actual article) to Model Railroader, or one of > the other major > > magazines, in > > > the past two years. > > > since 1990, I have had at > > least four S scale layout plans and articles > published in Model > > Railroader and Model Railroad Planning. > > Bob Nicholson > > Hi Bob...No doubt you are ahead of the pack.
