On Magazines

Electric Nose reminds us that the Model Railroader's Layout Planning issue is out, and tells us why he thinks Model Railway magazines in the US are so much better than those over here in Britain.

Despite zero interest in American outline modelling, I always find MR's annual "Model Railroad Planning" issue inspirational reading; many of the ideas are just as applicable to models set in Britain or continental Europe, and the standard of presentation and writing does make British magazines look amateurish by comparison.
