Well if anything, MR is consistant.  Jan 1965 MR 84 pages.  Feb 1965 80 pages.  Probably for similar reasons that Steven Otte posted earlier.     If you have not gotten your May MR, stop reading this post, it contains some spoilers.       After further reading, I found the Bachmann E7 review useful (if they run a roadname Im interested in without DCC installed, I'll buy one).  I might build a modified version of Lou Sassi's Iphone holder.  I would make it a little longer so the phone sits in a full cradle and cant be knocked out/add a hinged and latched door on top so if the cats knock it over, I dont end up with phone all over the floor.   V.S. Roseman has a decent article on upgrading streamlined cars, my biggest take away is that the walthers dining cars dont have room for legs, so instead of hacking up full legged people, I should buy the unpainted Preiser figure pack which has half people and full people.  No the article does not say this, but its a nice little hidden extra.  The half people can go in the diner, the rest can go in other cars that have legroom (Rapido etc).  Unpainted figure pack costs $12 at LHS, Painted $37.  <- The issue paid for itself.   Diesel handrail replacement by Cody is a piece I will keep in my back pocket for later, and it applies not just to warped handrails, but also broken or missing handrails. A step-by-step or how to article on how Scott Lamoureux built the Cisco Bridge would be neat.   I want to know how Pelle Soeborg makes his corn fields, they look really nice.  The couplers on his trains look amazing too.    The overpass article is directly useful, as a highway bridge crosses my prototype in a similar manner.   While you may not have found this month's MR useful or interesting, others may have.  Not every article every month can be tailored to your specific interests.  If it were, you would be the only customer. Despite my disagreement with "the future of model railroading" article last month, I found the rest of the April issue to be interesting.
