I just saw an ad in MR for suppliers to place ads in MR. Accordning to that ad, the average modeler spends $913 annually. Assuming the 200,000 readership is every model railroader, then annual MR spending must total over $200 Mil. However, when the hobby show was in Dallas in the early 90's, an article pegged spending then at over $600Mil, with predictions of going to a billion by now, mostly on account of the growth of G. <br /> <br />I suppose the economy of the last few years has kept the hobby under the Billion mark. Nonetheless, there must be many modellers who don't read MR, or they spend more than they think if spending is at $even $660-770 MIL.
