Model Railroading Magazine June 1987 Issue
Value & Price Guide
Got this June 1987 issue of Model Railroading magazine. It's got some cool stuff inside like HO MDC and Tyco steam conversions and some info on Atlas HO SW1500s. Cover looks pretty good for being from the 80s, just some normal shelf wear. Perfect if you're into vintage train layouts or just want to see what the hobby was like back then.
