Thanks,
It is a very good article in the magazine, and the video is a nice compliment.
The video was slightly delayed in posting; it went up yesterday and you can watch it here. We hope you enjoy it!

At the end of the article on the Black Diamond Railway, it says you can go to the layout visit part of the web site to see a video. I can't find the video in that section. Could someone please point me in the right direction? thanks.
Great Issue. Read it cover-to-cover.
Looking forward to the Lionel d-146 display layout feature coming up. I'm building a layout in my garage but don't have enough room on it for all my accessories. Maybe I could build a d-146 to display those accessories that'll still need a home.
I've been a subscriber since the second issue.
This is the best in a long time.
Let's see more like it

Big Congrats to Dave Smith on having his layout featured. (applause)
As I said on the Coffee Pot, this was a great issue. I am really enjoying it. My congratulations to the Staff for a job WELL done.

Congrats to all involved in putting together this great issue. It just keeps getting better.
I love CTT and have all the issues. Also I have the two pre-CTT stand alone issues as well. Simply an outstanding magazine.
From Hirail to tinplate. You covered all the bases and did it very well. Great issue.
Thanks

Oh yeah, forgot to mention: GREAT ISSUE! (But aren't they all?}

Holy cow you mean I got 25 years of those things, that's gotta be a fire hazard.
Congrats CTT

Jon,
These were one-shots (okay, two-shots) that were not directly tied into the concept that became CTT. The two issues published were intended to be a stand-alone intro to the hobby for Christmastime shoppers, rather than a title that featured in-depth coverage of old trains or collecting..
A few years back we (Kalmbach) published Model Trains Step-By-Step which was more of an evolution of the concept.

Just an OUTSTANDING issue. I have gone threw it at least three times and still want to pick it and read it again. Thank you.

Question: In the article on the founding of CTT Dick never mentioned the Pre-CTT Holiday Issue that came out around a year before. It had a great article on how to detail O-27 track!
Great issue!
Keep on training,

Wonderful and most fitting to see David Smith's O-27 layout in this 25th Anniversary issue of the magazine. There's a great video of it in action on YouTube:

Trains, trains, wonderful trains. The more you get, the more you toot!
My 25th Anniversary Issue arrived in yesterday's mail and it was AWESOME.
Great features, great articles!
I tried to complain about something (it's in my nature) but I couldn't find anything. All the aspects of the hobby seems to have at least a little somthing about them in the issue.
As a charter subscriber from some 25 years ago, I think the writing has gotten better and the reviews are more informative over the years.
Outstanding issue, Congradulations on both a stellar issue and just surviving and thriving for 25 years !
