Chris, Guess my argument is two-fold. First, I think the MPHS has the right to limit some website content to members only. That could be a benefit to members...
Back in the old Whit Towers days the NMRA Bulletin carried quite a bit of structure drawings many of them by Paul Moon. I wonder if the society could get...
Chris and others, Thank you, thank you, thank you! I was going to join the MPHS for the photo section but I am VERY glad I have found out it is mostly the same...

I have a Bachman Doodlebug at home that I bought on impulse right after they came out. I had always wished I could find a MoPac prototype for the Bachman model...
Hi Chris, Send a photo or two when you finish it. I have been trying to find which doodlebugs operated between Gurdon and Natchez during the late 1940s-- but...
