Revised News Update format
I like it. Easy to use.
Very nice, but maybe it would
Very nice, but maybe it would be beneficial to put the scale(s) next to the links so we know what ones we'd like to see?

News interface
I agree. It's too much to have to click every one just to see if they have any 2-rail O-scale offerings. I can guess that most don't, but I wouldn't want to miss anything. There's little enough for us as it is!

I hate this layout
I hate this layout, My clicking finger doesn't work anymore. Liked it better when it was a "one document" release and I could scroll through it, backwards and forwards. Progress I supppose. yuk.
New Format on the news letter
I like it because I can pick and choose from one manufacture to the next and if I deside I want to look at something again I can click on the manufacture rather then searching all the pages again. Also if there is a manufacture I want to avoid I can skip them.

For those who don't like the new format ...
For those who don't like the new format, hang on. Once we go monthly in a few more months, the news posted on the web site like this will become the news in the magazine and that will be that, as they say.

The only downside I saw was the number of posts.
I typically just go to the "Recent posts" link at the top of the right column. Doing it this way pushed a lot of recent posts to the second or even third page. It was only a slight inconvenience. Once I realized what had happened, it made things much easier. I like that the new products will just be a regular department in the new monthly format. I think that if it could be arrainged by scale, it would be even more useful, but I don't know how late you receive new product news, or how easy it is to just plug a last minute new product announcement into the middle of the department to keep things organized by scale.
I read all this months news
I read all this months news and browsed through many web sites as all that was available were single words and a link when clicked on. I was impressed with "BEST" some really nice Kits are offered.
