Jack Burgess, our tool man, shares more useful tools for our
modeling tool box. The right tools can make all the differ-
ence between so-so modeling and quality modeling.
Ken Patterson shares more great modeling with What’s Neat
This Week. Ken’s gotten really enamored with HOn3 lately
and has been having a ball. To quote Ken, “my HOn3 pur-
suits are truly what’s neat for me!”
The announcement that Floquil and PollyScale were going
the way of the dinosaur rocked the model railroading world,
but thanks to companies like Micro-Mark, the paint void is
being filled very nicely with more modern paints. Be sure to
check out our review of MicroLux paints in this issue.
We wrap up this month with Reverse Running, our contrary
view commentary. This time, we ask the question: are we all
a bunch of copycats? This subject created a lively discussion
among the staff and we suspect that it will do the same for
you, our readers.
And finally there’s our Derailments segment. This month we
have a fun vintage model railroading video submitted by Ray
and Renee Grosser that’s sure to give you a few chuckles
this issue’s rear markers.
Have a great March issue read!
