First things first we must admit to a mistake made in last
month’s issue. You probably searched long and hard to find the
back cover story, ‘One Year Winter Project,’ by Stephen
Barker, to no avail. You will find it in this month’s issue, on
page 9. We apologize to Mr. Barker, and hope that you enjoy his
tale.
Hard to believe, but it’s time once again for us to collect
information for our 1996 Steam and Gas Engine Show Directory. By
the time you read this letter, you should have received our package
of information if you are your show’s contact person the one
who sends us the wheres, whens and whos of your events for next
year. If you haven’t heard from us, or if your show is brand
new, let us know so you can be included. Deadline is December
1.5.
Our travelers have returned from a very successful European trip
and they will be sharing what they have seen overseas in the
magazine over the coming months. We are glad to have Mr. Wendel
returning to his column with this issue, and encourage you to write
to him as winter approaches, for any answers you need to pursue
your restorations.
You may notice that there are a couple of changes in our
masthead this month. Gail Knauer, our associate editor, has become
Gail Anderson, having been married on October 21. Linda Sharron is
now Linda Weidman. While the names have changed, the individuals
are the same ones you have been corresponding and speaking with for
quite a few years.
Hoping you and yours are well and happy during this holiday
season! We’ll be back with you next year!
