14 MODELING COLORADO MINES: TYPES OF ORES AND THEIR TREATMENT, Part I by Ken Stanley Since Colorado mining railroads are a popular prototype among Sn3 modelers, this in-depth overview of how various ores were handled during mining's heyday will help with layout planning.
17 ALL THE REQUIREMENTS FOR CLASSIC Sn3 MODELING by Susan O'Brien The White Pass & Yukon Railway is celebrating its 100th anniversary, which makes for an excellent opportunity to check out this prototype if you are looking for narrow gauge modeling inspiration.
20 THE Sn3 DENVER & SAN JUAN RAILROAD by Dennis Hagen This turn-of-the century Sn3 layout runs from Durango, Colorado to Gunnison, which allows Dennis to make connections with the D&RG, RGS, C&S and with other Colorado narrow gauge roads. Color photos accompany his description of the layout.
22 CONVERTING D&RGW #223 TO DSP&P #195 by Bill Meredith Bill won the Sn3 Modeler award at the last Nation Narrow Gauge Convention with this good-looking and smooth-running converted 2-8-0 locomotive. Here are some color photos and a description of his techniques.
24 THE CIMARRON I MINE DIORAMA by Tom Troughton This scratchbuilt diorama will be incorporated into Tom's layout, but it was built so that various elements could be removed and worked on right at his workbench. Scale drawings and color photos accompany the article.
32 BUILDING A TYPE I RGS/C&S BOX CAR by John Hugh Coker John did some in-depth research (even though information was scarce) to find out how to scratchbuild this box car, which was built by the C&S and later used by the RGS.
38 BACKGROUND MURALS DON'T JUST LOOK LIKE THE REAL THING, THEY ARE THE REAL THING by E. E Van Pelt The search for a realistic background on his narrow gauge layout led E. E. Van Pelt to an elaborate photographic process that resulted in these colorful background murals featuring Western landscapes.
