YES!

A pot of tea... a nice Rose Tobacco on the hookah... and a new issue of MRH.

Nobody bother me for a while.

What's new...

Athearn SD38 is RTR, not Genesis.

New issue not linked to in forum

I've tried this on two different computers.  If I'm on the forum and click the "Get current issue" right above recent posts it takes me to the August issue.  I've also tried refreshing the webpage, no success.  Any thoughts?

Modeling chart download error

Joe, I'm having problems downloading the subscriber extra modeling chart. After I unzip the file it says in valid format. This is on a Android phone. (Previously downloaded successfully the painting guide). Will try on my tablet and see if it works.
 

Edit: Downloaded  just fine on the tablet. Handy chart, but is there a way we could add large scale sizes too?

Corrupted download file

The zip file is fine, that error generally means a corrupted download. I just now tried a download and it came down and unzipped fine for me.

Like what, for instance?

Like what scales, for instance? Large scale is actually a huge collection of scales ... per the NMRA:

The term “LS” for ”Large Scales” standards covers all common commercial scales running on LS 45mm gauge track - 1:32, 1:29, 1:24, 1:22.5, and 1:20.3

There's just not enough columns on a sheet of paper to hold all those along with the other scales too! Now if someone wants to make up a totally new chart just for all the LS sizes above, we'll publish it.

Common sizes in 45mm gauge

typo in Imagineering column

On "page" 21 second to last line reads: ...has to be reacting (even if passively) to very other figure, so... , obviously very should be every.

This is the online edition from the link above.

New issue

Dennis, remember the new issue is released here in the forum the weekend before it is released as the current issue, hence why you had the problem with the current issue still being August when you tried the link. Actually I thought the new issue was released the first Monday of the month, but I'm sure Monday being a Holiday changed that for September.

It's now the last Fri of the previous month

We have permanently changed the issue release date to the last Friday of the previous month. This way the issue is ALWAYS out before the first.

The first Monday release date would result in an issue coming as late as the 7th of the month. We would get frantic emails from modelers looking for the next month's issue once the first of the month came and went. This way, we always beat the first of the month, sometimes by as much as 7 days early.

Last Friday of the Month

Ahhh... I see Joe covered it.

Yeah... if I don't get my MRH BEFORE I get my print magazine subscriptions, I start to panic!

hehehehehehe...

Found a Typo

Found a Typo on page 123 of the horizontal version.

Next to Fig 5 (order 231) next to last paragraph, next to last line.  It reads "who has the information ont he train sheet. Let’s see how the".  Should that not be "on the train sheet"?
