Model Railroader
What's here:
Where some things in the books were first published.
The editor of MR wants you to know:
Photocopies of articles
from out-of-print issues
are available from Kalmbach customer sales and service
at 800-533-6644
(414-796-8776 outside the US and Canada).
Some readers may assume that there was more
information in the original article which was left out of the book, and so
want to find the original to get the whole story. In fact the only one of
our books where that's sometimes the case is "101 Track Plans." In all of
our more recent track plan books "From the pages of MODEL RAILROADER," the
articles are reprinted in their entirety, and may even include corrections
of errors that were missed in the originals.
