JUST PUBLISHED! OGR BACKSHOP DIGITAL BOOK!

BAM!  Investment returned again!  Thanks OGR!

Thank you, OGR for another resource for digital subscribers.  I expect to get good use from it.

There are, perhaps, misprints on the table of contents and p. 69's chapter title.

Rich,

   Ok you finally got me, this Back Shop Digital Book makes it now well worth the Premium membership,  I will now join.

Rich I have a problem, I want to pay for the subscription each time myself, I do not ever give any company permission to auto bill my bank account, I will join if you can give me a way to pay your company each year, not using the auto billing set up.

Who is the young guy on the inside cover?

Just scanned it.  The Rock Island Steamer article is worth it's weight in gold!

Thanks Rich.

Just glanced thru it. Looks pretty interesting.

There is? Where?

Lash-up......

Yeah me too Joe, Lash-Up? I bet Rich didn't see that one!.............

I did, very much like this issue....Thanks again Rich to you and your staff.....Brandy!

Rich, I was trying to point out the "lash up" references that Joe and Brandy note w/o using the term, itself. 

Yes, I not only saw it, I wrote it on that chapter page. The title of Jim's column was "Build Lash-Ups Without Command Control."

I gave up on the "lashup" thing a long time ago. It's a lost cause...

Fantastic.....it just keeps getting better and better....

And so it goes . . .

Also, very timely release because it includes Jim's very comprehensive article on "tuning up" PW horizontal motors/trucks--I have 5 sets to do.

What a nice, pleasant surprise and added bonus to boot. Thanks for putting this out. Jim's Back Shop articles are some of my favorites in every issue. I signed up for digital as soon as it came out to support the forum. I was already (and still am) a print subscriber, which I really prefer to read. The digital is definitely providing a lot of unexpected extra value. Thank You!

I like that.

I have been a digital subscriber since day one. 1st time I ever felt like checking it out.

Digital Subscriber although I prefer the paper copy. Tried to access Jim's stuff digitally with my name and password......"failed",not allowed?

Dewey, you access it using your email address and password. Give that a try.

You can also CLICK HERE to see EVERYTHING in the OGR Digital Library!

Works everytime when done correctly. Thanks Rich.

I'm sorry Dave, but there is no provision for manual billing. The process is entirely automated. It does not access your bank account, it is simply a charge on a credit card. Virtually all on-line digital publications use this billing method fur subscriptions now. Nothing to be afraid of.

If you subscribe, you will get an email seven days before your subscription expires next year. The email will contain a link you can use to cancel your renewal if you wish. If you want to renew, you don't have to do anything.

A Great Idea and reference!!!!!!

Page 69 caused me to spit my coke out on my keyboard. OGR owes the government a new one

Thank you all for the comments. 

Lash-ups.... I still love it.  Despite my partner's protestations, and despite a lot of conversation to the contrary, it is STILL the term used by my good friend who has worked for CSX as an engineer for the past 25 years (and he still uses it regularly to this day).  He also says that most if not all the other engineers he works with still commonly refer to one or more engines "MU"d together as "lash-ups". 

Thanks again,,,,,makes my investment look even BETTER.

Great work guys.

Thanks Rich. Have had a lot of inquiry's lately on the slide shoe fix.

Great Job by all.

Just what the doctor ordered! 

Just Ordered, Just upgraded!!

This is the first of several OGR Digital Books planned for release this summer.

The next one will be a collection of Ed Boyle's Collector's Gallery columns from a long time ago. Fascinating reading there, that's for sure!

Thank you guys Rich & Jim . It was the first item I checked on today.

Hmmm...the article on page 69 referenced above uses 'Lash-Ups' in the title, the add below for the DVD uses 'MU' instead of 'Lash-Up'. Wonder who would have changed that?

Looking forward to the upcoming summer releases. Since I just re-entered the hobby about 4 years ago, I am way behind and have been reading everything I can find to try and catch up. Will be good reading these older articles, starting with the one here.

Rich,

   I am truly sorry that I will not be able to subscribe on those terms due to security concerns, nobody is ever given the right to repeatedly bill my bank account, I would put OGR on my bill paying center and pay the OGR bill, like I do all my others bills. 

I am disappointed.

PCRR/Dave

Awesomeness!!!!

Wow a home run OGR, thanks to everyone.

Serviced a pair of PW horizontal motor power trucks per Jim's instructions and it was a piece of cake--only difference was substituting Red 'n Tacky for the white lithium grease.  Now the motors.

Thanks Rick and the OGR team!

Dave, you can certainly stay away if you want, but your fear is unfounded. Almost every on-line subscriber-based magazine uses this automated billing process. Hundreds of thousands of subscribers to various magazines around the net do this every day and think nothing of it.

And once again I have to tell you that NO ONE HAS ACCESS TO YOUR BANK ACCOUNT! This is nothing more than a credit card charge, which can be disputed should you wish to do so.

The security setup to do this is staggering. The protections which have to be in place to be legally permitted to do this are big-time serious. Our billing provider complies with every one of them every day.

I hope you will reconsider.

Dave, at our house, we enjoy the convenience and security of auto-bill.

The auto-bill is fully under your control and you can shut it off in seconds.

I travel a lot and its great knowing that my monthly payments are automatically paid by my Bank to my select beneficiaries.

You might consider contacting your banker to confirm the safety of the secure auto-bill program that Rich has offered you.

Contact me if I can help.

I am a bit late to the game here, but having these articles in one reference book is really a wonderful bonus for being a subscriber!  Jim's repair articles are timeless.  I am very much looking forward to Ed's collector gallery collection.

Thanks again!
