Hi Everyone. Best wishes for a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year.
I mentioned this some time back, but I wanted to remind you that on the Jan 1 Model Railway Show, my guest will be fellow S-scaler Brooks Stover. He'll be talking about his excellent and extensive BC&G website. On the same show, our own Trevor Marshall will be chatting with James McNab about his HO scale industrial switcher layout. James has some excellent suggestions for tackling a smaller layout...suggestions that are even more relevant to those of us in the larger scales such as S. You will also want to listen to our Jan 15th show. I'll have Brooks back to discuss the four principles of layout design he has written about in his book Modeling the Buffalo Creek & Gauley Railroad. If you have not yet heard our podcast, it's really easy to access. Simple go to our website themodelrailwayshow.com and scroll down the home page to the mp3 or mp4 icon. There are more sophisticated ways to listen, but this will get you newbies started. Trevor and I put a lot of work into the show, which we keep down to a listenable 30 - 40 minutes in length. Cheers Jim Martin
