MESSAGE FROM THE PUBLISHER....

Good luck Alan on your new journey. 

Dave

Great start!  Was going to ask you how your first day was as our Publisher, it already looks terrific!

Congratulations!

Ed Boyle

Partner/Special Projects Editor, O Gauge Railroading magazine

Congratulations and best of luck!

Congratulations Alan from all of the Detroit 3 Railers !

Congratulations Alan

Joe

Congratulations, Alan!! 

I agree; This is THE number one place to be in the O gauge hobby! 

Congratulations Alan.  I can think of no one better qualified to assume this position.  You have firmly established your self in the modelling community with an imaginative and extensive top tier layout and in the supply side as a consummate marketing professional. OGR is once again at a critical turning point.  I am glad that you have stepped up.  I have every confidence that you will earn great success and that in your capable hands OGR will flourish.  All the best, Pat B.

Way to go Alan!  I'm sure by now you have the keys to the World Headquarter's executive kitchen and are allowed to use Ed Boyle's helicopter and pad connected to his office.  Lastly did Rich give yo the access code the the Cherokee Red Cabinet?

Great beginning Alan. Congratulations from here in the Ozarks. Looking forward to seeing your work on the magazine along with the forum. Proud to say you are my friend.

On behalf of River City 3 Railers, we extend our congratulations as well.

Alan:

Congratulations! 

I'm told publishers collect a bigger check than advertising managers so go buy yourself something new to play with on the layout! 

Curt

I sincerely wish you well in your new position.

Congratulations to a great guy and great friend.  Alan is not just the Publisher, he is also a high end Train Guy.    Our good friend Captain John was lucky enough to see the beautiful layout that Alan has at his home.  It is on my bucket list as John mentions it often.  We will have some great days ahead of us in the hobby.   Hopefully with his new position Alan will get to visit my neck of the woods in the future.  I am holding a spot on my train room wall for him to sign.  Again, our best wishes to a great guy.

Marty

Congrats Alan!!

MartyE got it wrong!! I hope you got the key to the Executive Bathroom!! 

Good Luck in the new role!! We'll be watching! 

Alan,

Best wishes for your stewardship of the OGR Forum and magazine - two vital resources for the O gauge community - which are of great interest, importance and enjoyment to so many of us.

MELGAR

Congratulations and good luck, Alan

No you get the keys to the company chopper ...

Alan,

A hearty congratulations and best wishes for all the best in the future on this important day.

The stewardship of the magazine and this forum are in capable hands.

Best of luck, Alan, in your new capacity as Publisher.  And congratulations!  

Congrats!!! This is THE place for model train, O 3r for sure, on the net and print. Thanks for the hard work. 

Congratulations Alan! I wish you the best in your new job, and I look forward to seeing what your imprints will be on the OGR Magazine.

Let me reiterate- all the best in your new position.  If past performance is a measure of things to come, OGR is in great hands!!

Congratulations and Best of Luck!  You will do just fine!   If I may offer some advice that served me well during my life's journey.   "Admit nothing, deny everything and demand proof".   Just sayin'

EBT Jim,

You weren't supposed to tell him that!

Now I will have to share the helicopter...drat.

Ed Boyle

Congratulations Alan you the man! Is  lash up now acceptable terminology on the forum?

Not a chance. Rich is still watching

Was great to meet you at York Alan and from us in the Smoky Mountain Model Railroaders - Congratulations and good track ahead!

Congratulations and good luck Alan. Looking forward to the  continuing success of OGR with you at the helm.

Best wishes, Alan!

Peter

CONGRATULATIONS and best wishes!

Best of luck Alan, you don't have to worry about Rich, I hear he's packing the RV!

I've been on the road all day in the OGR Mobile Raw Nerve Center, so I'm a little late to this thread. I hope the new Publisher will forgive my tardiness! 

Alan, I wish you all the best as you take the engineers seat on this fast-moving train. The job briefing has taken place, the original engineer has been relieved and the new engineer is now on duty.

 I know that OGR's future is is good hands.  

Clear track ahead, high ball!

Congratulations Alan.  We are sure you will soon have things steamed up and smoken'!

Jeb

CONGRATULATIONS - big shoes to fill, BUT you can do it!

We are very fortunate to have you, Alan, take the lead going forward!! I'm excited about what will come next.

Also, a huge thank you to Rich for all his work over the years (I sure learned a lot about real trains as an added bonus to all the great modeling material) and for handing the bataan to a bonafide o gauge master!!!

Congratulations and best wishes Alan.  

Hi Alan, You and I go back 9 years now and you have certainly helped me in several ways over this time.

So thanks and Congratulations to you on this New endeavor.
