A longtime stalwart of the hobby, Model Railroading Magazine ceased publication effective with the August 2006 issue. This is really unfortunate since just last year the magazine had launched an initiative towards and electronic version of the magazine.

PDF versions of the magazine featuring every article, Sandhouse, Trek Plan and other regular features and advertisements were linked together so the reader could jump from one place in the magazine to another, or go directly to an advertiser’s website.

You can still order back issues, magazine CDs and books through their website at least through the end of February 2007. Orders can still be placed by phone or Fax at 303-338-1949, but ordering online is best.

They have great deals on back issues and bound magazine volumes.
