Model Railroad News Magazine - The Whistle Post

At my local Barnes & Noble and discovered a new magazine to me, "Model Railroad News". If you haven't found it I suggest you do. Very well done and up to date. So much so I subscribed for a year at $29.95. Covers, in depth, about anything you can imagine in all scales: New rolling stock, new engines, new structure kits, not just a broad brush treatment, but detailed pictures in color of construction and finish with intelligent tips. Engines and rolling stock are reviewed in detail. Only thing missing is huge layouts that most of us will never attain. I like Barnes & Noble's magazine section. Usually pick up several English model rr mags, too. See what the other guys are doing across the pond.

Regards to all...

Yeah, I've been reading it for several years (3-4?). Very nice magazine and nice people who publish it also. My current subscription runs out in 2010 and I will definitely renew.

I like it too. It really just cuts to the chase of new products.
