@DaveJfr0 posted:Some thoughts here:
But can you give five examples of 2R-based article submissions that aren't a layout feature that you'd actually want to publish in OGR magazine?
Dave,
I have been an OGR subscriber for about 20 years. I can't give you any examples off the top of my head. Over the years, however, OGR has published many articles on how to build O gauge buildings, lay track, construct scenery, convert 3-rail wheels and couplers to 2-rail, etc. The techniques for laying and ballasting track is the same in both 3 and 2 rail.
The late Jim Barrett's articles about layout construction are universal whether a layout is built in 3 or 2 rail. Jim wrote about how to construct a lift bridge to cross a doorway at a layout's entrance and how to construct a curved wood trestle, for example. Bill Bramlage has written extensively about how to build sky scrappers and how to detail buildings. I am sure that Allan Miller will be able to give you other examples. NH Joe
