2001 has been the best year yet for 7/8" scale as we have seen a number of kits for engines and cars and a recent rash of construction by subscribers to our two email lists and other modelers. A number of articles and photos have been published in the print magazines, the numbers of subscribers to the email lists continues to rise, and Steve King serialized construction of 4-wheel boxcars on the Internet.

This is the 4th Newsletter I have put together from submissions from 7/8" modelers around the world.  It has been fun! Thanks to you all!  I look forward to a great year in 2002.
