Got mine today. I think the best articles are the ones about former Lionel employees. I really enjoy reading those. Also enjoyed the article on the postwar 622,623,624 and 6250 switchers. Liked the layout designed by Train Station. The 9 X 16 area fits my plans. I might really have to study this one.

All Lionel all the time.

I can remember walking up to the Hobby Store every year for the New Lionel Catalog. That's the truth. It was exciting.
I think they start delivering the CTT mag in the South and work North. I haven't got mine yet. Boring weekend.

Blueberry - don't put any stock in your comment about starting in the south, mine usually shows up a minimum of a week after others start getting theirs.

Welcome to ya, Locomotion!

I'm here in a damp Western Pa, waiting for the rain to stop. When it does, I'm gonna head out to the mailbox (about a 250 yard journey) and check to see if mine came, too! I was going through some of my back issues last night, before I went to bed, so I know I need a CTT fix.

It's a beautiful thing! [:D]

Welcome Locomotion. Glad to have new folks. Prewardude, send some rain down south to me. I'll send you a pitcher of sweet ice tea. [;)]

I have been thinking about moving to Texas. TAXus. I didn't think you all had any state income tax. What gives??

All Lionel all the time.

Good issue, but it's a wonder I got it or the last one...address label hanging-on "by a thread"...thanks to 2 tiny stripes of easy-to peel glue. Joe

Almost fell off.

Okie,

8.125% sales tax, skyrocketing property/school taxes (and local schools are budget cutting under Robin Hood plan), and possibly implementing a tax on all professional services (i.e. your doctor, CPA, etc.). School systems in chaos.
