ON THE COVER
Bill Neale’s HO scale recreation of Steubenville, Ohio is reminiscent of what Frank Ellison did on his O scale layout in the forties, but this one is based on a specific prototype—it is “Modeling From The Prototype.” A Layout Tour begins on page 34 of this issue. This is one of the layouts you can visit in person by attending the 2008 National Model Railroad Association Convention (www.nmra.org/2008) in Anaheim, California on July 13-19, 2008 and signing up for the appropriate “Layout Tour.” —Robert Schleiche
