Am I the first to receive the February issue? I stopped at my mailbox after supper this evening–and my copy was in.
I have not had time to really read it, but I have found that it is the most underground issue I remember ever seeing–A article about a tunnel in South Alabama, more on the Virginia Avenue Tunnel, and more on the Gotthard Base Tunnel.
Mine was here, too. And along with the pleasure came the pain - the property tax bill…
Got mine Monday![8-|]
Got mine today also.
Still Waitin’.
Mine showed up yesterday.
Still waiting for my January issue…
Showed-up yesterday and a little worse for wear. (snowed-in postman reading material?)
Contact customer service, they WILL replace it. They replaced one of mine, the December issue, that didn’t show up.
Mine showed up today in good condition.
Got a kick out of Brian Solomon’s inaugral column.
I’m sorry to say mine arrived – the most boring, irrelevant issue in my memory. If we can’t do better than this, we are in desperate staits, indeed.
Got mine saturday, enjoyed the articles about Tier-4, locomotive lights, and the track gang.
The staff seems to be doing much better making sure that locations mentioned in the feature story’s are actually shown on the maps that accompany them (the tunnel articles)
Map of the month go the same way as the once promised “Everything you always wanted to know about paint” article?
That’s too bad, I really “dug” the tunnel articles.
Sorry, couldn’t resist.
Hot Spots, pg 62, focuses on Galesburg, IL which is indeed a very interesting site on BNSF. However readers may wonder how the westbound SWC transitions from the former BN to the ATSF line and vice-versa how the eastbound SWC from the ATSF to the BN.
It would help if the map were expanded about 3-4 miles west to Cameron where a unique double wye connection makes the answer clear.
Boring!
You started it… (Need to go underground for a while)
Someone says that about just about every issue - whilst others find the selfsame issue fascinating…
Has anybody yet been so disgusted as to tear it into two pieces and return it to the editors?[:)]
Aside from the well-publicized case of the first all-diesel issue back in 1963, I don’t know of any but I would assume that it has happened occasionally. DPM also noted that the reader who returned said all-diesel issue did NOT cancel his subscription.
If I started following that impulse, I’d be reading my local newspaper every day in halves.[xx(]
