S Friends, Some might remember that I spend a couple of days after the (now long gone) St. Louis convention in Springfield, Illinois, where I photographed two model railroads there. I announced that RMC was the intended publisher of Bob & Brian Jackson's California based layout as well as the layout of their friend who modeled in the smaller scale.
After quite a wait, I finally inquired about anticipated publication dates for either layout as well as, receipt of some kind of payment. I became very concerned about a lack of communication from the folks at RMC, so I approached the folks at Kalmbach to see if I could tweak their interest. It worked and they loved both articles. After that I informed RMC that I was moving my projects to another publisher. They finally responded saying that the HO layout was on the press. Of course it was and it looked pretty good, at least from my standpoint. I did inform them that Kalmbach would still be given the second article featuring our S scale layout, since I had not seen any sort of payment. Well, at this time contracts have been signed, payment made and a scheduled publication of the Central California Railroad has been made. Publication is still several months off but I feel it'll finally happen. Meanwhile, this starving artist photographer is still waiting for payment from RMC. I haven't talked with either Bob or Brian, to see if they'll be at the convention, but if they are, poke them on building a fine layout and for putting up with me!
