I wonder if anyone on the list might happen to know where a copy of the October 1970 issue of Railroad Modeller could be located? According to Al Westerfield's Fowler kit instructions, it apparently contains some drawings for the GT Dominion box cars which I am looking for. Unfortunately, the drawing isn't listed in the MR Magazine Index and the issue is not for sale at Railpub.

I'd be happy with access to any other source for drawings of these (and all other) Canadian National and Canadian Pacific Dominion cars. (I have copies of the documents on the CPHA site (CPR cars) and from CC&F (CNR 1920's series - like the lovely Speedwitch models). So far, the rest of the variations are pretty elusive.

Rob,

I think I saw some Railroad Modellers at Central Hobbies in Vancouver the
other day; if you want I can take a look and see if they have this one,
next time I'm by.

Hey thanks for the tip Frank - I get by there all the time so will have a look myself!

I wonder if anyone on this list can tell me roughly what the history of the magazine was - owner, target audience, etc. I'm also wondering about getting permission to copy the drawings, etc.

As this may be of minor interest to most, I will be brief. Railmodel
published 6 quarterly issues starting in January 1970 and was
published out of Don Mills, Ontario (Toronto). The owner/editor was
Don Hamilton who also produced the CRM (Canadian Railways Model) wood
kits. It is rather hard to say who the target audience was though it
was probably modelers interested in Canadian roads because as far as I
can tell, every article (except for a few generic modeling tips) was
based on a Canadian prototype.

Rob--

The publication was Railmodel, out of Toronto. I have the issue that
you are looking for, and will try to scan and send the drawings.
