Thanks!
Wow!
Thak you for providing a wonderful alternative to the printed publictions. While those pubs were the main clearing house for information during my 40 years in the hobby there were many times (and this is one of them) that I could not justify the money for annual subscriptions and still afford to model.
Your online magazine is one of the best innovations this hobby has seen in some time. I watched the interview with George Selios (whom I consider the best of the best) and to hear him explain his inspiration and the changes he has made was wonderful! My son and I have a meeting tonight of a new train club in our town and you can bet I will tell everyone about your great magazine!
Finally I would like to say that I agree with an earlier post that stated "it's my railroad and I will do what I want". I have been to too many club meetings where someone just had to point out that my modern double door boxcar shouldn't have Bettendorf trucks or something similar. Well hey if you're getting down and looking at what trucks I have on my N scale rolling stock you need to get a life ya kill-joy!

You're welcome!
indy:
You're very welcome. We feel the internet is a game-changer when it comes to publishing, so we felt we should break the hobby publishing mold and show what's possible and that it can be done using a business model that is win-win for both modelers and advertisers.
We're now just over 18 months old and our web presence (according to the web traffic tracking web site Alexa.com) is becoming an industry-leading one approaching the same league as Trains.com. Not bad for less than 2 years out of the gate.
We depend on word-of-mouth, so whatever you can do to "spread the word" about us is appreciated!
