Egad. I hadn't thought about that! Mark -- please don't leave the forums, even after you leave the magazine!!!! You're 'way too interesting and valuable!

I wish you and your family the best. I do not get many Trains Magazines, but the ones I have gotten, are really good.

I too want to express my appreciation for a job well done, Mark. You set a standard for others to follow that will probably make your replacement worry about filling the big shoes you leave. I hope you will occasionally drop by and post your thoughts here as well; I have enjoyed your posts and your input.

I wi***o say, that everyone on the forums wish you and you wife well. We enjoyed your time at Trains, we we sure hope that you will continue to join us here at the Trains Magazine Forums. I was skeptical at first when you first became editore, but after what you have done t the magazine, bringing about its new looks, you have become one of the finest editors of Trains. No Man has been able to drastically change the looks of a magazine more than you. If you ever decide to come to St. Louis, Let me, bnsfkline, and others, Railpac and MarkSTL know, and we together will show you around.......Thanks for making Trains a Magazine worth reading again!
