WOW! Look at this cover!
For a second or two I thought I was looking at the real thing! “What? Did ‘Trains’ misplace a cover photo?” I asked myself. Then I saw that third rail. “Ah, VERY dramatic indeed!”
Well done CTT! Another home run!

Thank you for the comments! I have gotten some questions about what article the photo ties to (see p. 18), and one person said they felt it was a “bait-and-switch” cover. That was not our intent. The story talks about the author’s many Amtrak trips and how he included scenes on his layout.

You are very welcome!
I can’t see why that would be a “bait-and switch”.
It says “Amtrak Inspiration” right there over the picture.
My only criticism is ‘More like it, please.’

Bingo! Now if only I had remembered to buy a subscription…
“Bait-and-switch?” You’ve got to be kidding! I swear, there’s too many people out there that just have to have a picture drawn!

I won’t quote Wesley Snipes exactly, but some people “always have to try to ice skate uphill”. IYK,YK.
