MRH Magazine general discussion

PREMIUM versus LITE Edition - what's the difference?
We're getting questions from a few people asking what the difference is between the PREMIUM and the LITE Editions of MRH, and if the content is different?
1. The content is the same
The PREMIUM Edition has the same text, the same images, and the same media, but it's all embedded in the download instead of on the internet.

Issue 2 release times ...
Expect Issue 2 - LITE Edition to be released by noon Pacific Time on Sat, April 11.
Then Issue 2 - PREMIUM Edition will be released by 5 pm Pacific time, Sat, April 11.
Once the both editions are ready, we'll send out a "come and get it" email notice to subscribers. Of course, if you're not a subscriber and you want to download it now instead of in two weeks - all you have to do is subscribe - and why not? It's totally free!

Removing Lettering
I need suggestions on removing lettering from a boxcar. I bought an On30 boxcar from Accucraft and I wanted to remove just the RGS letter to replace it with the home road name. I am planning to leave the rest of the lettering on the car. Any suggestions what is the easiest way to remove it ?
Thanks

Ideas for making MRHM go viral. . .
I thought it would be great if MRHM had some downloadable logos/banners that we could place on our blogs, websites, etc. which we could link back to MRHM. This would help with viral marketings.

Over the last few months I have added a loop to my layout and have freshened up the scenery and have decided that I want a spring feel to my layout. This first picture is of my new favorite loco. It is a UP Big Boy
Parts availability
Several weeks ago I questioned some Manufacturers Parts availability. Because I do a lot of modifications to my models I do at times require additional parts. I'm happy to report that Canadian Hobbycraft was extremely generous in fulfilling my recent requests. Athearn is also on there game. Proto / Walthers seems to have some issues. Todays limited runs have changed the game but I'm happy to say most manufacturers are trying to cover the needs of there patrons. Those that can't should say so.

Archives and Bookmarks
First: Thanks for a great media-zine and web site. Nothing will be quite the same after the first issue of MRH! Secondly: While reading the discussion on archiving MRH issues, I had a thought. Along with the capability to "Google" topics within the web site, maybe it would be possible for users/members to have a bookmarks section in their user account that would allow them to index their favorite articles from MRH.
