Thank you, Jim. Good point about “long time guys”. I kind of stumbled into this when I had my layout open for an NMRA event for the first time. They saw what I had and encouraged me to apply. Turns out that I already had enough for the MMR with my articles, my layout and my previous NMRA contest entries.
S guys should know that at least here they will count our S mags as “National Publications” for Author points. The down side for S gaugers is NASG contests don’t qualify: different judging system. But they will judge your models on site without even entering them in NMRA contests. I think that the ones that I had entered and gained enough points from did give me a lot of credibility, however. In my new role as Achievement Program cheerleader, I want to encourage all to look into applying for at least some of the certificates. I believe it would bring more exposure to S if we got more involved. Just another avenue for expanding the scale.

Well done! As for other MMR's in S scale, I know of one. My good friend Pete Moffett has his MMR. However he got his before he started to mess around with S scale trains. Does it count if you come in through the back door? He still has his On30 layout in the basement, but the S scale stuff he brings brings out to the local train shows is top notch. I wonder how many of us long time guys are closer to our MMR than we think when we start to take stock of what we've done over the years.
