I got my brother-in-law (an LGB enthusiast) a two-year subscription to "Garden Railways" as one of his gifts this year (his other gift from me was RR-Track track planning software so he can have some fun planning his indoor pike). <br /> <br />I know how much I have learned and continue to learn from reading GR (which I always buy at the local B&N), and I know he has always enjoyed the past issues that I have given to him the few times a year when I get to see him and my sister. So, this was a very appropriate gift, in my opinion. <br /> <br />And if in the course of our conversations I find that he is enjoying his subscription (I'm quite sure he will be), it will be renewed a couple of years from now so he can continue enjoying the publication. <br /> <br />"Garden Railways" spurred my own interest in that area of model railroading a good many years ago, and I have never looked back. I enjoy some issues more than others, which is only natural as our interests develop and change, but I invariably learn something new from each issue and I recognize the importance of this publication in supporting and growing the hobby (not to mention this forum). Others may feel that they get all they need from the Internet, but I don't share that view at all, even though I participate actively on half a dozen model railroading forums (various scales). <br /> <br />As I see it, a gift that provides inspiration and knowledge is one of the best gifts one can give.
