I've been wondering about this Trains.com thing, as my subscription to the hard copy magazine and the digital archives just renewed.

To sign up for everything Trains.com I think is about $80.

The mag and the archives is about $70.  Do I need both???

Confused, and no answers as to what is happening, to description of services, just questions.  Confused

I too am confused.  I think it is fair to say that Kalmbach has been incoherent in their roll-out of trains.com.

MRVP vs. Trains.com
Posted by Tophias on Monday, March 15, 2021 9:07 AM

I'm trying To understand the relation between MRVP and Trains.com.  When they first started talking about Trains.com I understood it to be compilation web site of their individual web sites, Trains, Classic Toy Trains, Mosel Railroader, etc.  but now I see you need to sign up. So my question is does having a current subscription to MRVP become a de facto subscription to Trains.com? Do I need a Trains.com subscription to continue to have a MRVP subscription? Please explain just what each is now. Thnx all.
