Here's some of the stuff I've had published over the years in the model railroad press.

 The newest articles are at the top.  In some cases these pages have photo outtakes, and most have a sample page.  Some even have the full text.

My town of Westcott was on the cover of the March 2013 issue of Model Railroader magazine, along with 3 articles (total of 14 pages) inside.  You can see a larger version of the cover, plus the opening page from each of the articles here.
