Welcome to our redesigned website! Long-time visitors will already have noticed the clean new look and improved navigation. There are welcome little touches as well, like a much improved video player.
That's important because our videos have a significant following. Many videos are open to all visitors including new product overviews, previews of upcoming issues, Senior Editor Roger Carp’s “Toy Train Emporium” collector-oriented videos, and a series of videos aimed at beginners.
Your subscription to CTT also unlocks terrific online extras, including episodes of “Bob’s Train Box,” our online archive of track plans, and videos of some of the great layouts we feature in magazine.
Our tech guys are especially proud of a feature woven throughout the labyrinth of the site's coding. Everything on this site now resizes based on your device. Computer, tablet, or smart phone, if you can access us, you can read us!
They held a meeting to explain how the website works but they lost me somewhere between "cross-platform features" and "scalable vector graphics." You remember cranking the throttle to max and seeing your train fly off the rails at the first curve? Whoops – there went my brain!
But thanks to the hard work of some very smart people we have a great new tool to spread the joy of toy trains. So, look around, click some links, and let us know what you think using the comment box below. I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
