Last Marker Lamp

 

Summer 2022 issue of the Marker Lamp
I've published my last Marker Lamp, the quarterly publication of the Lone Star Region of the NMRA. I took over as editor from Chuck Lind, MMR 10 years ago and transitioning the Marker Lamp to a digital publication with that first issue. Lots of fun doing it, and now I pass that fun off to Peter Kazmir hopefully for the next ten years! 

Unfortunately, this last issue announced the passing of a Lone Star Region legend model railroader Gil Freitag. His equally legendary wife Virginia had been featured in the previous issue when she passed away just a few months earlier. Both of these individuals exemplified the best of the hobby in many ways, and they leave behind a lasting impact in the model railroading community.
