JUNE 2026: NOW EXPANDED TO 108 PAGES! This month, we celebrate the New York Society of Model Engineers, Inc.'s 100th anniversary with a visit to its expansive HO scale Union, Hoboken & Overland. Andrew Nelson models an unusual movement of Coast Guard boats in N scale, while Jonathan Jones explores the details of a skewed truss bridge on Jersey Central’s Newark Branch. Chris Adams demonstrates straightforward techniques for creating mud and dust effects on a diesel switcher, and Ken Harstine shows how to make more realistic rock castings. All this and more in the June issue of Railroad Model Craftsman!
