[quote]QUOTE: Originally posted by dougal Yeah all of the HO reviews are on the MR&T, hopefully we'll see an article on it soon. [/quote] No, to the contrary, the vast majority of the still photos of HO scale locomotives reviewed in MR are shot on small, purpose-built dioramas in Kalmbach's studio, which is just a few doors down from the MR&T. Many of the videos shown on Trains.com are shot on the MR&T, the cover of the May 2003 issue of MR was shot on the MR&T, and the photo of the Rivarossi Allegheny in the August 2003 MR (Readers Choice Awards) was shot on the MR&T. [quote]QUOTE: That's where the MR staff goes to play with the trains when they are really bored... [/quote] Yeah, as if there's lots of time to be bored at MR! There's a magazine to produce, you know. When I was at MR, the layout had been in a sort of stasis for a couple years, maybe a bit less. Interest in the MR&T, which is the Kalmbach employees' club layout, had fallen off for a variety of reasons. Hope was that some of us new staff members would rejuvenate activity on the layout. However, I'm not much of a club guy and spent my modeling time working on my layout projects.
