Personally I'd like to see articles like those written by the late Art Curren. Art's buildings were unique , rther easy to build and Art always had a story to go with them.
Frankly, I'm not impressed by articles featuring basement-sized layouts that were in many cases, built by someone else other than the owner. Track plans don'e do much for me either. i already have my track plan and there are tons of track plan books out there for those who don't yet know what they want.
I'm guessing that many of us have layouts that are in progress and can always use articles that will help us add to them. nothing beats a good kitbash or ideas to repurpose an existing structure.

The new RMC has a very detailed article on building an access gate to bridge a doorway opening. It's something I've been contemplating for some time. Not only to access some unused area but allows us "seasoned citizens" to enter an area with out bending over. Such layout enhancements may be of interest to many of us but we have no idea of how to go about it. I think something about fascia, layout skirting, backdrops (both installation and how to paint your own), storage, lighting would deserve some interest. Nothing real technical, KISS methodology works best for me. Resin/plaster casting and mold making. I know 3-D is out there but it can get a bit pricey. I'm sure others will have other subjects that I have not thought of.

considering the interest in Sheldon's post on truck wheels, would there be an interest in such articles in a magazine?
considering the redundant threads on various, often technical, topics on the forum, seems like there's a need for articles on those topics ... perhaps not a how-to but a hot-to-fix
what types of articles would you be interested in seeing?
