Hello Dick,
I think the title of the publication says it all. We scalers
either have to put up and support our own magazine or not as the
case appears to be.

Library's copy of the Jan/Feb 2008 S Gaugian. The cover photo made
me want to cry.

The photo is of a small engine terminal area that's featured within
the magazine. The structures, scenery, and detailing are much
better that I have seen on most layouts. Even the rails are
painted -- something I do on my own layout. But there's a monstrous
AF switch right smack in the center of the photo. The rest of the
track is AF sectional with extra two-foot-wide wood ties added.

tell someone he/she's not doing it right. Still, I wonder about
someone who has such a good eye for detail and completeness and yet
cannot see the incongruity of the total scene. Surely the notion of
using something like SHS sectional track must have occurred to the
builder... Or maybe not...
