Each week, I will pick a random page from a back issue of Classic Toy Trains and talk a little about it. I’ll kick off this series with the very first cover. It was one of the few covers to feature a person, Richard Kughn, next to part of his collection. You’ll also notice the Model Railroader logo on the upper right–Kalmbach Publishing was using the MR brand name to point out its new brand.
