I also really enjoyed reading Richard's fine article in MRH.
He had two other articles in MRH that I recall - both truly in depth. One was his "survey" of HO freight car truck cars. His first MRH article was on panel-side hoppers and appeared in the second or third issue. Marty McGuirk |

It sounds like Jon has problems with the Adobe reader, which has definitely become more unusable with time. Fortunately PDF is a well known file format and as long as you can download the file, there are other programs that can display PDF files. Just Google for them. Tim O' I'd really like to look at this but Adobe just will not cooperate. It keeps saying it won't install with IE and when I shut IE off then it still doesn't install the latest version. |

Sorry, that was (obviously) intended just for Jon.

Or you can read it on line at http://mrhpub.com/2015-02-feb/port/ The tank car article is on page 40.

Jon…
It shouldn’t be a “install” problem…you just needed to download it to your own computer. Once downloaded, click on the file and it should open in Adobe Reader, a free program available from Adobe. If you want, call me and I can help you with it. Jack From: STMFC@... [mailto:STMFC@...] Sent: Monday, February 2, 2015 4:15 PM To: STMFC@...

Computer problems are, of course, off topic for this list, but there IS some fine freight car info in the February MRH. Keep trying other avenues, Jon. And BTW, it is hardly Adobe's fault. The MRH issue downloads just fine with Firefox and Safari both.

MRH given its format is running long articles on subjects and the photos are large enough they can be used for reference and guidance in building models. Kudos to this groundbreaking publication! Clearly they are supportive of Freight Car Articles in case people have not noticed the several articles over the last 2-3 years.

MRH also gave me space to write a brief bio of Richard, which is at the end of the article. I'm sorry that Richard did not see the article in "print," because I know he was pleased with how it had come together.

Guys, Our friend Richard Hendrickson penned an article on multiple compartment tank cars prior to his untimely passing. It can be viewed here: http://model-railroad-hobbyist.com/
This one is highly recommended, written in the same style as his many previous articles in RMJ etc. including many photos for reference - actually this article has far more photos than his print ones. Best wishes, David Lehlbach |
