I also subscribe to MR along with Trains. As for MR, honestly I subscribe to it to look at the pictures and to read about other peoples layouts that I can only dream about. But in the end I do manage to read the whole magazine and I have also recently bought some binders to keep them in as a reference for later dates. I agree with quite a few. Alot of the focus seems to be on large expensive, high tech layouts. Something that I probably won't ever achieve at least not in the near future. Oh well it gives me something to shoot for. But I must say that I do like reading about Jim Kelly's Turtle Creek Central branch RR that he is building. For a new guy such as myself, this is a great motivator and a teaching tool. Thanks MR and Jim Kelly for doing this little feature. Hope to see more like it in the future. At the current time, I dont mind all the ads. It gives me an idea of whats all out there seeing that I dont have access to any major catalogs. I guess if I had to give a suggestion, I'd like to see MR do features on smaller displays, something that falls in the 4x8 or less category. Beginners layouts in other words. After all in order to get new people into the hobby, it dosent hurt to attract them to a starter layout that they can actually do and pay for on a smaller budget. Steve
