(The East Broad Top Railroad is one of America's great historic treasures, and while plans are being discussed to save it, time and the elements are taking their toll); The New River & Pocahontas (The NR&P carries coal from deep in the Appalachian Mountains to the seaport town of Deepwater. This large HO scale railroad has a history that is at least as colorful as its scenery) Modeling - Rock Island Mongrel GP18 No. 1351 (Rock Island GP18 No. 1351 spent part of it's career wearing a combination of two paint schemes, and this is how the author chose to model it using a Life-Like Proto 2000 model); RMC/Dremel Kitbashing Award: Kitbashing An SAL 20-Foot Door Boxcar (In the mid-1950s the Seaboard Air Line modified a group of 40-foot boxcars and designed them for easier loading and unloading. These modified cars are a kitbasher's delight. Here's how you can build one); Bashing A Baldwin 2-4-0 And Tender (A Bachmann 0-4-0 is the starting point for this kitbashing and repowering project, which yields a model of an old-time 2-4-0); Geodesic Foam Scenery (What is geodesic foam scenery? It is a lightweight, economical, easy to work with, durable scenery making technique that produces beautiful results) Prototype - Canada's Eight-Hatch Iced Refrigerator Cars - Part II (Our look at the use and development of the Canadian eight-hatch, overhead ice bunker refrigerator cars continues, and scale plans for a Grand Trunk Western ice reefer are included); General Electric's New AC4400CW (High horsepower and A.C. technology put these heavy duty locomotives at the forefront of today's railroading) Departments - Notes On An Old Timetable (Editorial); Safety Valve (Letters from our readers); Dispatchers Report (Product and industry news); RMC Timetable (Scheduled events and notices); Test Track (Product reviews); Collector Consist ("Other" S tinplate by Keith Wills); Editors Notebook (Commentary); Classified Advertising (Commercial listings); Exchange Place (Non-commercial listings); Dealer Directory (Recommended hobby dealers); Advertising Index |
