Received and read my copy of OGR Run 328, and I consider it to be one of the best yet! Several projects and layouts for inspiration. I especially like John Orlichs’s layout which features affordable, conventional engines and rolling stock. You don’t need $1000 engines to have an awesome layout. Great, great issue!!! JohnA

The words that resonated the most with me from Run 328 was in Steve Chorazak's article on page 37:
"I didn't want any lift-outs or duck-unders. I learned that lesson from the second layout I previously built. Most of my older relatives couldn't get to the best part of that layout. Now that I'm in my 60's myself, I'm glad I thought of my older relatives."

@JohnA, my exact impression too ! BIE ! (Best Issue Ever). I loved the CNJ cover, the layouts, Dave's project in the back, but all the vendor ads were a great bonus, it was a "who's-who" of where to go to find stuff.

I don’t know about best ever, but it’s certainly a great one! Relishing every article.
