Don't panic!!!
For those of you who haven't heard, Kalmbach Publishing has shuttered its business. However, the publications Model Railroader, Trains and a few others have been transferred to a new publisher, Firecrown Media.
There are a couple of YouTube videos associated with this change with discussion on what is going on. The first is an interview with Craig Fuller the owner of Firecrown here. The second is a discussion of the change with some really interesting history of Kalmbach and their relationship with Athearn in its infancy discussed here. Douglas Models of Salt Lake City and its importance to early modeling is also discussed in detail in this second link.
So if you want a short history lesson and information on what is going on with the change over check this out.
If you have an idea for a blog post here, let me know. If I can comment on it, I will or I'll see if someone else can and post it
