I find the Kalmbach magazine "Classic Trains" to be more in line with my own interests than either "Trains" or "Model Railroader". Too bad it only comes out four times a year. When my "Model Railroader" subscription expires, I think I will replace it with one to "Classic Trains".
"Classic Trains" deals with subjects from the pre-1970 era, with emphasis on steam and passenger and early Diesel. They generally have at least one in-depth study in each issue. The most recent was a wonderful article on the Pennsy S-2 turbine, complete with technical drawings, stats, and sidebar articles comparing it with other railroads' turbine locomotive efforts.
The only reason I'm mentioning this is I suspect there are other posters here who's interests are close to mine.
