I joined the club a few weeks ago by subscribing to MRR! It’s the first magazine I’ve actually considered good enough to subscribe to.
So anyway I’m staring at the mailbox, when do you guys usually get your issue in the mail?
For the May issue, I received mine around the 26th of April. I’m still waiting on this month’s…

This months issue seems to be a bit late. I usually get mine on the 26th also. If it does not come today I will call kalmback.
i ususlay get mien 2 or 3 days before the 1st of the month, im getting worried this month’s has yet to come and it alrdy june 1st!!!
My MR and Trains (July’s issues) do, indeed, seem to be running a little late this month. Mine usually show up in my mailbox on a Tuesday or a Wednesday, that was yesterday and the day before. Could be the recent holiday - July (Memorial Day), January (Thanksgiving), and February (Christmas) usually throw things out of whack. Oh, well!! It’ll-get-here-one-of-these-days!!!
Periodicals (as I understand it) are usually processed at the printing plant on a day of the week after a particular day of the month rather than on a fixed day of the month schedule; consequently sometimes this magazine schedule has to be adjusted. This could be that cycle. I’ve got mine as late as the 8th of the month - a rare occurrence but it does happen. At least once a year my mags get so out of schedule that I’ll get my RMC before MR/Trains.
I got mine today, it came sometime in the last day or so. It did seem a bit late.
Mine almost always doesn’t arrive until after the 1st of the month, sometimes as late as the 9th or 10th. It can depend on where you live. We have a bulk mail facility about 20 miles away and I live in a large metropolitan area (Washington D.C.), but we seem to always be later than most people when receiving our mags. Scale Rails, the NMRA mag is usually received in northern Virginia as much as 2 weeks before we do in southern Maryland, although no more than 15 miles apart as the crow flies.

I got my June 06 issue a little over a week ago, but I had to call Klambake to have my subscription updated due to the move from New Orleans, LA to Wake Forest, NC. I told them to restart my subscription with the June issue so I guess a special order was put in for that.
But as the saying goes, a watched pot never boils!
Tom,
Probably in your mailbox today. I got mine today and wasn’t really looking for it-still haven’t worn the ink off June issue.
Been installing/programming decoders plus a bit of wiring so read time suffered.
July has what everyone has been waiting for: MTH HO scale K4 review. Gasp, it really wasn’t a “phantom” engine after all!
