Publishers live and die by covers. They believe that the cover sells the magazine and no amount of persuasion by an editor will change that fact. TRAINS underwent a total redesign. This is done by almost every magazine every couple of years. It's believed that redesigns infuse new blood and might attract readers. <br />TRAINS also is feeling the greying of railfans. I'm sure they're trying to attract the younger set, hence the more modern logo and cleaner layout. <br />This greying problem affects NRHS, and other railfan organizations. The average age of railfans isn't getting any lower. <br />Ask anyone who is in any organization, Masons, Elks, etc., and they'll sadly agree that the younger set aren't the joiners their parents and grandparents were. <br />Anyone with ideas about how to attract younger persons to the hobby should share their insights. Perhaps this is worthy of a new thread? Ya think? <br />Hank Morris
