Name Change/New look for Model Railroader magazine

Yup, that of certain "educators".
It is amazing what kids can do with computers? Roger Aultman

Thanks for the help with the alternative site for the graphic.
I guess the owner of the orginal site got too many hits and shut down or perhaps a visit from the Milwaukee Mafia threatening his kneecaps with a pot metal big boy . ;-)

[BLUSHING]Well, the rest of the story. The missing site is me. I found the mag cover on yet another group. It had no credits. I posted it on my little unfinished site and gave the URL to a tiny Yahoo group. Since I had pirated the image, I took it down in twenty four hours.
I took it down not knowing that it was making its way across the internet. When I found that rmr was involved I went in search of the "real" posting. No luck beyond the thread on the Railwire which I posted here. With Colin 't Hart's deconstruction with Tom Mann's site as the result, I think we now know the credit.
It's darned funny.

I found it here:
Dear folks: The cover was really funny, and I was going to post and say so, but I ended up reading the latest MR and it was really pretty good, for the second month in a row, no less!
Cordially yours, Gerard P. President, The Sparta Railroad.
Okay, who wants to to send the url to Terry Thompson?
Eric
They must have seen it by now ;-).
If they don't take themselves too seriously, they all had a good chuckle over it (and maybe took the point as "reader feedback", too).
