Jon, Any of the Garden Railway Magazines have the plans in them?
I think I have issues that go back that far. Haven’t got them dug out yet. I remember that I used to pull the plans and file them. I’ll look for that file too.
Sounds great Jon. If you have any of the plans I would be willing to pay for shipping if you would mail them? Im not sure if I can make the show or not yet…
OK. A bunch of them should fit in a large envelope and go first class for cheap. I’ll dig today.
Updated list and some additions. More updates to come.
Friends of the East Broad Top magazine The Timber Transfer 20+ years complete. All issues Winter 2003 through Winter 2024 with a few dupes.

That completes the list of what has been piling up on my desk for 20+ years. Next, I’ll start going through the filing cabinet in the train room where most of the other magazines are. Full list soon.
All of the above are free. If you would like them sent on your dime, that can be done.
EDIT: Deleted items that have been spoken for.
Hi Travis. I have GRs complete from 10/2000 to 12/2003. All of then have plans except the second half of 2003. Some are 1:29 and some are 1:20.3. The 5 or 6 issues I checked still have the plans intact. Do you want the magazines, or just the plans?
Another update after going through a full file cabinet…
Garden Railways - All issues 10/2000 through 12/2003 plus three 2017 issues.
Model Railroader - 9 Random issues 1982 - 2003
Classic Trains - 6 random issues 1999-2003
RailPace magazine - 20+ issues not yet cataloged.
I’ve not found the 1960’s trains magazines. I may already have moved them out.
Jon can I get the DCC book and did you happen to come across the ramp to the eng. case.Richard B
You got it! Engine case? You mean the fancy wood carrier? Did that end up with you. I forget quickly! Haven’t seen it yet. My train room is a disaster as I empty all my storage shelves to sort stuff.
yes i ended up with the fancy wood carrier
Have you come up with any thoughts about controlling the crane?
Not yet on both the crane and the ramp.
Just the plans would be fine… I will pay for shipping if you are willing to mail them?.
I’ll let you know Travis. I wasn’t planning on opening up each issue, and without the plans others may not want the whole collection. If they end up going in the recycle bin I will pull the plans first and give you a shout.
That will work Jon. If I can make the show I will Let ya know. Thank You!..
