During the LGB insolvency people were using Google and Babelfish to translate German press releases into English, lets just say the results were less than spectacular, and in fact were almost unreadable!   But our In-House translator had an exceedingly fine time reading some of those translations. Apparently the only part that was still funnier was the interpretation some people took from the "Garblefish" and "Shnoogle" translations. Regards ER

Hi CPT Stryker

I am sure I have seen a couple of Euro layouts in Garden Railways mag in the past.

I am not surprised at the predominantly US style articals given the Mags location

It would be nice to see a larger variety of layout styles, both on a national outline and garden variety basis perhaps indoors as well?? makeing it the large scale mag for all comers.

BUT the magazine is restriced by what people submit for possable  publishing.

Mind you I was inspired to find out more about slotted post signals after an artical in the mag and thats now on the one day list.

When I can find a decent drawing of the operating set up at the base of the mast so it can operate just like the real one from a lever at the base of the mast.
