N scale magazine features our Canuck friends

Just got my author's copy (thanks to my column "Dave Berg's Lighter Side of N Scale") and am not just impressed, but blown away by the showcase presented by modelers from North of the Border.  Our own Tim Horton, Mark Dance, Andy Thomas and some guy named Puddington (plus a few others) present the stunning work that gets done when the sun is only out 4 hours a day, and you can't go outside because a hockey game is on.

I raise a Molson and down a jelly in honor of your accomplishments.

Finally received my issue today.  And Mike, some of you don't know your real name and that's why they were wondering where your stuff was. 

Also, Lee your article on the Hard Hat was great. Made me want some Vitamin Y (that Yuengling to those newbies here).  Can't wait for the Rail B que coming up, although I'm now wondering if I should bring a shotgun since everyone else will have assault rifles.

Thanks Mike - when I clicked on Puddington to get a user profile the forum showed its arse by  saying

"You are not allowed to access this section"

I would have bet the work on page 21 was yours because of your passenger car work. My bad.
