our hobby time is spent putting the magazine together for you.
Waiting for one of us to write an article on steam locomotives
could leave you waiting for a long time. We have an article this
month, on installing a sound decoder in a brass steamer.

This issue
In this month’s issue we have an outstanding line up of arti-
cles beginning with the formal introduction of TrainMasters
TV. Joe interviews Barry Silverthorn, executive producer,
giving our readers an overview of the vision and scope of
TrainMasters. If you had questions and were hesitant to sign
up, this interview should answer those questions for you.

about locking up the turnouts on your layout? James McNab
shows us how we can model this real-life, day-to-day opera-
tion on a layout in a very practical manner.
Bob Battles provides us some very practical tips for installing
a sound decoder and speakers in a brass steam locomotive.

Need signs for your building walls? Ralph Renzetti will take
you on a step-by-step tutorial on how to make your own
custom-weathered signs. Meanwhile, Bernie Halloran will
show how to bend the sky with a different material few of
us have ever considered using.
We have our regular columns beginning with, Q-A-T where
you can learn something every month, followed by Bruce’s
