Great Model Railroads 2014 just arrived in yesterday's mail and it features a familiar name and face for Forum regulars, Dave Vollmer and his N scale Pennsylvania Railroad layout. He should be congratulated as it (the layout that is ) looks great in the magazine in spite of its modest footprint and portability.
There is much good stuff in GMR '14 besides that, including the latest version of the V&O.

Go Dave, go!!!
Not only is the layout great, Dave's "Classic Model Railroading" magazine wannabe was a comedic gem.

Vollmer's N Scale layout is one of the best I've seen for its size.
Congrats Dave!

Guess I'd better pick the book, up not just for the juniata sub, hehehe there's a layout in there that piqued my interest.

Thanks for the kind words, guys!
Having devoured MR since before I could read the words, I've always dreamed of someday making the pages. This year I had the privilege of making both GMR 2014 and Trackside Photos. All that said, I owe any success I've had at all to techniques developed by others and by feedback through Internet forums, to say nothing of a now 20-year old trackplan done by Lou Sassi for MR. Working with the MR staff was easy and fun, and I really appreciate Paul Dolkos' time and talent in photographing the layout.
If I were eligible to retire from the Air Force right now I'd be very, very tempted to answer that Kalmbach job ad up top!!!
Dave ...... Congratulations for being in Great Model Railroads!
