Sam Posey's Railroad

[Anonymous]

I'm interested in getting copies of the articles in Model Railroader describing Sam Posey's Colorado Midland HO layout. I read about it in his interesting book, Playing With Trains. Unfortunately Model Railroader's search engine is not able to handle this request. Help appreciated.

There are two articles about Sam Posey's railroad:
MR 2/95, "My Colorado Midland", general description of the railroad, along with some stories you'll recognize from Posey's book.
MR 12/01, "The Magic of Illusion" shows how Posey arranged the scees to make interesting photographs. To me, this is the more interesting article, because it talks about the subject of composition in Model Railroad scenery. It also gives a better sense of Sam Posey as a model railroader with a vision.

As for searching MR, use the Index, found at index.mrmag.com. It's great.
