I don't know which magazine cover is better ?

   I really don't know which magazine cover and article is better this month. Lee's Laurel Valley, or Mid West Modu Trak . The Modu Trak feature takes me back to the past history of the Utah N Rail Modelers club, now Wasatch N Scale and our decission to drop N Quack (Trak) as I call it and go with a higher height 48 instead of the N Trak 40, a double track mainline, and code 55 track, at the time ME as Atlas wasn't out there yet. Yes we grandfathered in several N Track modules with a transition sections . Now the Current WNS is still modular,not sectional for flexibility, still has 2 track main and we have end loops that can be used for flexibility if needed. Nate Goodman (Nato). Salt Lake, Utah.

I do, but then I am biased because I have a personal interest in one of the covers.  That said, congratulations to both authors on creating great articles and getting published.  Keep those submissions to the model railroad magazines coming, so we can continue to enjoy your work.

Battle of the Magazine Covers (insert twangy banjo here). Both look great, though I only have seen the on-line images, haven't picked up my copies yet. Congrats to all involved.

One of these days I'd like a chance to see the Utah Wasatch modules. I was out at Park City a few weeks ago, but didn't do any train stuff.
