Big#99,

Great, I just started a subscription myself, beginning w/May04 CTT, which has my feature article in it. Glad you liked.

Dave, I forgot to tell you that your article was very good. The 1,200 trees article was the best part for me.

Way to go Big#99, you have many pages of enjoyment to look forward to!
I have enjoyed each one of mine, also check around train shows and
meets for older copys. I have picked up issues for 25 cents each ,what a deal !
My oldest copy is their #2 issue. Still looking for #1.[swg]

Congratulations BigNumber99, and welcome aboard. Pretty soon you will want to jump on the “subscriber’s special”. It’s good to hear that you have your first issue. I happen to have the first issue, and every one in between (I hear the very first issue is getting pricy). Hang on to them all, they make for great reference later on, and if you see back issues at train shows, pick them up. You have missed a lot of good stuff, just don’t miss any more.[swg]

Here’s what happens when you subscribe for a while. The top row of red binders is every issue of CTT.

Good for you Big#99. Yeah, you’ve missed a lot over the years. I constantly find myself going back to older issues of CTT looking for articles with info I want on whatever project I may be working on.

I also just enjoy looking at the layout photos.

The older issues are well worth having and if you see them for sale at a show or yard sale, don’t pass them up.
