Ted maybe you could answer this, but In the past RMC (and other pub's) have taken especially popular series of articles and complied them into a book.

Will your, or rather do you think your series on Essential Freight Cars be compiled into a book?

Bill Schaumburg and I have discussed doing this and the answer is yes, although no details or specifics have been worked out, including timing.

He better get permission from Ted and/or RMC. Guess he'll have to use
snail mail since he apparantly doen't know how to use the internet.

The problem with reprint articles such as this is timing. By the time
it is compiled, many of the kits will probably no longer be available
(at least new). Ted's articles are getting published in a farily
timely manner so it's not happening here, but often the subject models
are unavailable by the time the article appears. Still it's a good
idea for those that can be done and the modeling techniques.

MAYBE we could hope... that just as the articles have created interest in certain kits, a book of reprints would maintain that interest, and those kits might stay in production.

That would be nice - a real win-win situation
