To all,

I received mine on Monday. I liked the gift set article and the one on the boxes. I also liked the Collectible Classic section on searchlight cars. I have read most of the reviews and I have glanced at some of the other articles as well. I hope to read the rest soon.

Keep on training,

Mike C. from Indiana

DC - ads usually have to be in 3 months prior to publish date.

Got my new CTT on Friday. Another great issue. Lots to enjoy. Did notice a huge bummer though. The next issue isn't going to be on newstands until April 4. That's a long ways off! So, we are at the 2 month interval season of CTT already. I wish it started later, like April or May. Then we'd have a new issue to read each winter month. Better yet, go monthly.

The new Lionel catalogs are already available?!

I received my copy yesterday. I enjoyed the "Fun on a 4 by 8-foot layout" story. It would have been better if they included a track plan. The guide to Lionel's postwar boxes was also interesting.

The article on the American Flyer 4-8-4 repair was GREAT!

Spent all day at a train show Sat., got the new Lionel catalog, and found CTT waiting for me when I got home. A very "train day". Nice to see reviews on some "lower price" trains, and coverage of very small layouts. Considering what Lionel postwar switchers go for, the new one looks like a great deal for 1/3 the price. Joe

Ditto--received mine today. Looks like some of the larger vendors have some decent sales going--at least better than last month.

Just noticed that MTH only has a half-page ad in this issue. That has to be a first! Must be trying to save some dough for the attorney fees. [|(]

Wish mine had. Probably will not arrive in time for me to get it before I fly out Monday PM. I wanted it to occupy my time while I fly South Trash Airlines. [:(]
