Looks like a great article, Dean! Great to see your railroad published in an all-scale national publication, featuring N scale at its finest!
Congratulations (and thank you).

I wonder if the digital edition includes "that song" ?    Well done.

Only because I don't subscribe now - what format is the digital edition?  I don't have any Apple tablet or phone.

More to the point - amazing work and congratulations!

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

Thanks all, and special thanks to you @superchief (Gordon Bliss) who was the first one to suggest that I needed to do an article on my layout for submission to a national-level magazine.  It took me several years but it's great to have accomplished something I never thought would be possible when I was reading RMC as a kid 50 years ago in our local library.

When my RMC arrived and I saw the Oregon Joint Line on the cover, my reaction was "YESSSSSSS!!!!!!"  Great presentation about one of the finest model railroads in the country IMO.  My favorite section is "Depth of N Scale".  Every N scale modeler should internalize the message.  I could not have said it any better.  Well done Dean.

I've been offline most of the week, working overtime, but I did read that article.  Your basalt is fantastic!  I grew up in southeast Washington, so that's the scenery I grew up with.

I wonder if there'd be enough interest to do a full article on Columbia Plateau basalt scenery?  Almost every other type of geology and vegetation has been written about by now.

Dean,
   Just picked up my copy today, the photos and the article are top notch, this takes N scale to another level! The pictures are outstanding, your photo backdrops make the layout come alive. The cover photo with the white and green insulators show the attention to detail on the incredible layout, you have raised the bar again! Hope to get up there to operate again. Congratulations again for a great article!
