Like most, I'd love to see CT a monthly publication. However, I too fear difficulty in maintaining the quality of the content.

Only the publisher can know if there is sufficient high-grade material to support monthly production. I don't see how such could be accomplished without serious additional cost of production (read: staff). Unless there is no question about a continuing flow of good material I believe it's not a good long-run proposition.

Just my $.02.

How about every other month? I figure with the new stories, plus what Trains has in its archives, there should be plenty of material to last a long time.
