Important Note:
All modern HTML5 compliant browsers automatically save the PDF to your device when you click the link. However, in the case of Internet Explorer (PC) or older versions of Safari (Mac), you need to do the following to get the PDF to download instead of display in the browser.

INTERNET EXPLORER USERS (PC): Please right click and select "Save target as"  to save the PDF directly to your device instead of opening it in your browser. 
SAFARI USERS (Mac): Please hold down the OPTION key when clicking to force Safari to download the PDF instead of display it in the browser. However, as of Safari 11 (released Jan 2018), Mac Safari DOES support the download attribute via a direct click. Safari on iOS still does not support the direct click, however.

Bottom line, downloading really large files within a browser on a mobile device can be an iffy proposition. Getting and using a download manager app is much better — we recommend GoodReader for iOS devices.

unsecure site warning

https

It is in the works. Part of the problem is advertisers who don't use it yet. With the click-counter redirect, it just doesn't work right yet. 

TrainMasters TV and any part of MRH that deals with money is HTTPS.

HTTPS

Jeff is right ... before we move this site to https, we need to move our ad server to https. Moving our ad server software to https requires an advertisers destination site to be https as well. Roughly half our advertisers are still plain http even though we’ve been warning them to get moved. Once we pull the switch on our site, we will have to cancel the ads for non https destination URLs because our ad server will no longer serve them.

MRH has been seeing attrition in ads as it is thanks to other internet venues such as Google, Facebook, and YouTube being cheaper and in some ways more effective than MRH ads. Pulling the plug on half our advertisers isn’t going to help the magazine at all.

We get WHY the move to https ... it’s just that so many of the small hobby vendors we serve do good to have a website, much less get the ins and outs of the technical savvy needed to move their site to https.
