R.I.P. Model Train Magazine Index

[steinjr]

When the NMRA convention ended this evening, the score was: NMRA, yes. Joe Fugate, yes. Kalmbach, "warming to the idea".
Don't expect anything to happen too soon, but the ball is now back in Kalmbach's court.
According to Joe, the "index" is written in "machine language" ( ones, and zeros, not a compiler. ) It will take some time, once the go-ahead is given, to get things "available".

The expectation is, that once all the legal issues that will have to be looked into, are resolved, kalmbach will come to a final decision. At this time, the chances are good that the ending will be favorable, and the index, once again, available.

Here is hoping that this will work out in the end - I like that index and would like to see it continued.

I guess Joe's approach (locating resources, and making constructive suggestions) got quite a bit further than the approach of just labeling people over at Kalmbach "pansies" ....

Smile,
