Keep an eye out for more product videos. There will soon be a video for an MTH engine.

Greetings from Germany Rene!

I have reactivated my subscription to Garden Railways starting with the December 2018 35th Anniversay issue. 

Regarding the new publishing schedule of GR: Please note that Subscriber Extras on the GR website masthead still makes the claim that GR is published six times per year instead of four.  I believe it is in the best interest of Kalmbach Publishing Compay and GR to make the change ASAP. 

That said, I'm anxiously looking forward to receiving the December 2018 issue and note that Spring 2019 will also be in the mail soon.  Thank you for sharing the new product review of the Piko 25-ton large scale diesel switcher with the GR community.  It will also go great with the Hartland MACK switcher.  I have added both locomotives to my 2019 Wish List and am sure they'll become the best of friends from the Get Go when I place them on the rails of my proposed freelance Texas & Rio Grande Western layout in my compact basement room.

Like they say in German: Klein aber Fein!

Regards,

Joseph Toth Jr.

Thanks for letting us know about the 6x/reference. I have emailed our Circulation department. We are excited about the direction of the magazine and hope readers will be too!

Opps.  I fail to understand how my text message was printed more than once.  Please delete the duplicates.  I have sincere faith in the entire Garden Railways team and deeply regret my "derailment" for not having remained on track.  Please accept my profound apology.

Joe, the fault may have been mine by hitting the quote button twice. Either way, enjoy the videos!

Rene, Just a minor problem.  I just noticed I failed to properly spell Company when refering to Kalmbach and the 6 issue notice under Subscriber Extras.  A pity that it isn't possible for contributors to edit their comments to make corrections when mistakes are discovered.

I enhoy the entire Garden Railways site.  I'm very happy to be back on board as a regular subscriber.  I can already tell that GR is on track to insure that 2019 is going to be a fantastic year for all large scale railroaders regardless if they were born with a green thumb or not!  

Respectfully yours,

Joe Toth

Yes.  I've been trying to look at Cody's office and get the same message.  It works fine in Chrome but my main browser is IE.
