Which magazine was published first, Naval History or Model Railroader?
Model Railroader Model Railroader (MR) is an American magazine about the hobby of model railroading. Founded in 1934 by Al C. Kalmbach, it is published monthly by Kalmbach Publishing of Waukesha, Wisconsin. Commonly found on newsstands and in libraries, it promotes itself as the oldest magazine of its type in the United States, although it is the long-standing competitor to "Railroad Model Craftsman," which - originally named "The Model Craftsman" - predates MR by one year.
Railroads Illustrated Railroads Illustrated, formerly known as CTC Board, was a monthly magazine, published by White River Productions (WRP), devoted to railroad photography. WRP purchased "CTC Board" magazine from Hundman Publishing after the May 2006 issue, and rebranded the magazine as "Railroads Illustrated", and used the CTC Board name for the news section. December 2014 marked the final monthly issue, with future expanded editions to be released annually. The news section and some feature content now appears in an expanded "Railfan & Railroad", which was acquired by WRP in 2014.
