Arrow No. 37-2 On The Way

Thu Apr 29 08:31:45 EDT 2021

Many years ago my wife bought me the dvd 75 years of Model Railroader. All issues  digitized up to that point with searchable index.   It was very difficult to read. 

And then I upgraded my computer. To my surprise the MR files no longer worked. When I contacted Kambach they said they used a security feature on the PDFs that was no longer supported by Mac and too bad your loss. 

Please don’t go digital only!!

While the story is maybe not as detailed as most might want, it is my recollection as a 14, very soon to be 15 year old. It has great photos from Dorr Tucker and Jeff Sanders, and you will be seeing more from their work in the future.

Please help us out by renewing early, so we don’t have to waste money sending reminders to you.

Please note, make sure you check your own address through the postal service website, as we have two addresses this time that were not verified by the postal service, and therefore, no magazine could be sent.

Very simple, this issue also features something new, some bonus content for the Arrow. I just finished uploading it, and it is 22 pages of photos, stories, and related content. That means that this issue, already a 48 page one, is actually 70 pages!
>>>> 
>>>> Now how do I get this? This content is a bonus only available to paying members, not available to non-members. This is to bring you more for your membership dollar. In the magazine, you will find a web address to log-in with your member number, name and zip code, this will allow you to download the bonus content.
