We’re back!
The Model Railroader Video Plus team
is pleased to bring you
The Ultimate Guide 2019!
For
those of you who’ve just picked up this magazine for the
first time, you’re probably wondering what it’s all about.
Well, every year we create more than 150 videos for
ModelRailroaderVideoPlus.com, our subscription video
website, and we cover a lot of ground in those 52
weeks. We always have one or more project railroads
running to show layout-building techniques. We also
have a team of contributing modelers who willingly
share their best tips. And we take trips to showcase
great layouts and full-sized railroads. There’s always
something exciting to watch on MRVideoPlus.com!
Although watching videos is a great way to learn
how to do some things (I fixed my stove by watching a
YouTube video), sometimes you need to see printed
directions too. Enter
The Ultimate Guide.
Each year we
take some of the best videos we made, and we turn
them into print stories. This gives you a chance to really
dig into select projects from the website. And as a
bonus, you get to watch some of our videos on
MRVideoPlus.com, even if you are not yet a subscriber.
Every story in this magazine includes a box with a link to
one or more free videos on our website. And you can
watch them as many times as you’d like.
So, kick back, enjoy a good read, watch some video,
and thank you for picking up
Ultimate Guide 2019.
We’re glad you’re here! – David Popp
