I recently saw a Member discussing a recent 2020 OGR paper magazine article, and I noticed it had a Pennsy tuscan red 5-stripe diesel on the cover.

I could not make out the date of issue, nor issue #, nor was it mentioned, only that it was a recent copy.

I went to my digital description issues, and there is no version with a Pennsy diesel on the cover in 2020 !?!

Did I overlook this edition somehow, or are the magazine covers different between the paper vs. digital versions?

...and if the digital and paper magazine versions are different, then why?  I send you a separate post today stating that a Menard's catalogue insert that Alan promoted, was also not in the digital issue . . . ?

Please clear the perceived inequity . . . thank you.

...and please remember that it is loyal followers that take the time to point things like this out.  ~;0}

It was Run 305, the April/May 2019 Issue that had the PRR FA No. 9663 on the cover.

The print and digital editions are the same, with the exception that the digital typically has more pages with additional images. The Menards insert wasn't in the digital because they only wanted it in the print book.

Thanks Rich Melvin !  Actually, the Pennsy diesel on the magazine I mentioned was Tuscan Red, but I appreciate your help!

I googled "2020 model train magazines" and could not find the magazine I referred to.  So I'll contact the originator of the mystery and find out what/where he got it...

We have not had an image of a Tuscan Red PRR diesel on the cover of OGR for years. I don't know what issue you're thinking of, but it definitely not one of our recent issues.

I did a quick scan of our over images going back 6 years. This is the only thing I found that is even remotely close to PRR Tuscan Red:

Are you sure it was a copy of OGR and not another magazine?
