Thanks for speaking to this, Roy. With Ken Zieska and others in the Minnesota group appearing regularly and Rusty's column every issue I think we are doing very well. And, while I never had AF as a child (windup Marx was all we could afford) I do find it interesting to see what the other guys are up to.

With all due respect and while I don't consider the Gaugian to be a definitive Scale publication, there are in fact articles of interest to the scale modeler. The most recent number, January/February 2008, mentions quite a few new S Scale products in the S Briefs column and in S Product Reviews; there is Rusty Westermeier's Scale Scene column; next is a four-page piece on "How I Built My locomotive Service Facilities on the Southern Pacific Cascade Line-Part II"; I got some good ideas from that one; Then the two hi-rail layout tours look more scale than Flyer to me, and in fact If they would not have told me, I would not have been able to tell from the photos that the layouts weren't scale-except for a couple of Gilbert items pictured. And of course there are many advertisers offering scale stuff. I can't say that the price justifies a subscription just for scale content, but to say that the S Gaugian is "All Flyer" is not exactly accurate. I personally subscribe because I am one of those dreaded, cross-over "Hi-Scalers... :) Cheers :) Roy Inman From: "Martin A.
