"Influential" Layouts
Posted by wilsonbrucea on Monday, January 21, 2019 1:09 PM

My brain and the index have failed me.  I seem to recall in the past 5 years or so MR had an article or series of short articles on what they considered to be the most influential layouts from the past.  Does anyone know which issues they were in?

 

TIA

Right off hand, I don't find any "most influential" but just last year, there was a thread about the most popular as far as railroads to model.

I'll have to look in the archives, which you can do to, just DON"T log into MR, and just go to the archives, as it's been "opened up to all" because of so many technical  issues with the web site.

This was on the likes of the Gorre & Daphetid, Delta Lines, Sunset Valley Lines, etc.

Wow, I just lost the scroll feature to my mouse, Laugh  Time to get a new one.

Yea, well, like I said, the digital archives are open to everyone, so log out, close your browser, and come back, just don't log into MR., Just go to the archives.  I just did it, thinking a restart would restore my mouse, no luck with that, but I got into the archives with no problems, so can you.

Search around.  I don't remember any such series of articles or any single article on the topic of "most influential", but I might have missed it.

Good luck.

Mike.
