March issue had 88 pages including the covers, and May has 80 including the covers, so I think I'm only short 8 pages.

But then April issue had 119 including the covers, so maybe I owe them a couple pages.

Mine is also short.  Pages 55 to 62 were printed twice and it's missing pages 63 to 70.

Well, I had 80 pages, however, pages 11 - 19 and 55 - 62 are duplicated.   Looks like an assembly error.Sigh

Sounds like an assembly and printing error.  Page 61/62 correlates with 19/20.  Page 55 should be on the same physical piece of paper as page 26.

Hi, everyone,

We've been made aware of a binding error that led to some pages being missing/duplicated in editions of Model Railroader's May 2017 issue that went primarily to the Pacific Northwest. If you received one of these issues, let us know and we'll fix it. Contact Customer Service at 800-533-6644 (if outside the United States and Canada, +813-910-3616) or e-mail ModelRailroader@CustomerSvc.com. Note that posting here on the Forums won't get you anything, as the Forums are monitored by the Editorial department, not Customer Service. You have to contact Customer Service to get your replacement issue. Thanks.
