MRH Magazine general discussion
What a find
I have been out of model railroading for some time due to lake of. I decided to at least build some kits I have collected and while doing a search on line I found MRH. This is without a doubt the best magazine I have seen and it is free. Really like the videos included in the articles. Thanks for your work.

As seen on Model Railroad Hobbyist Magazine??!!!???
So my Youtube home page showed Jason "liked" the video the Train 26 video. Knowing what fine taste Jason has I clicked on it to check it out. While watching it I noticed in the lower right corner an eye with As Seen On: Model Railroad Hobbyist with a clickable link to the MRH site. I have never noticed this before on any video for any site. Is this something new? Has anyone else seen this
MRH on the Kindle Fire
I just wanted to make a few comments about the MRH on Kindle Fire video from the December issue. I think that the ezPDF program you recommended works great where as the links did not work at all in the other program I was using. However, you (Joe) mentioned how annoying it was having the popup verification of every link before following them. You can turn this off. Click the up arrow at the bottom of the screen to bring up the menu, backspace, etc. and chose the menu function. On the far right of the menu that appears, you will see an ... (ellipsis) in orange.
Fair use?
Having tried to write an article for MRH, I'm left with a question. Like many (most?) of us here, I do a lot of research for my models on line. The web is without a doubt a superb resource for esoteric information about obscure subjects. The trouble is, a lot of the information (specifically photographs) is by default the intellectual property of the creator. That's fine when I want to make a model for myself, and even when I want to sell a model I built, but when I want to write an article and include a prototype photo, what do I do? For a variety o
Model Railroad News closes shop
Sadly....
After much thought and discussion I regret to announce that effective immediately, Model Railroad News will no longer be published. It has been a pleasure and an honor serving you these past 16 years and if there was any way to continue on, we would do so without a second thought.
Thank you for welcoming us into your homes and allowing us to be a part of your lives.
Sincerely,

Adding to the Model RR lexicon
Many, many years ago, Model Railroader (I think it was MR, or a predecessor) made up a new term to describe the object that we want to model. They called it the prototype, which until then had meant something different.

Still, it's a good term and it works and it's become ubiquitous.
