"Magnetic, movable maps"
was published in the December 2005 issue of
Model Railroader magazine, in their "MR Project Illustrated" section.

Here are some shots I sent to MR to "illustrate" my point:

Here's a closer view of the great artwork that was done for the article, and...

here's the photograph that the artwork was drawn from.

As an alternate, I sent along this shot to demonstrate an operator's point of view while switching the town.

In addition, I sent along this shot of LaPointe's map.

Here's a shot showing the magnet on the back of the plastic frame, as well as the fender washer that's mounted on the fascia.

The last shot I sent the magazine was this "right off the rack" frame from Target.
