About the Cowcatcher Magazine
The Cowcatcher Magazine, publishd by Ballpark Impressions, is the only publication covering local model railroad, rail enthusiast and railroad-related news for Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas and Missouri.
Started in 2004 in Keller, Texas, as the Cowcatcher Round Up, the magazine brings to life the people, places and events of this community like no other publication in the marketplace.
The Cowcatcher Magazine not only has news of interest about one of America’s favorite hobbies, it features compelling articles about regional people, places, events and history, all professionally written and edited by accomplished journalists and contributors.
Unlike other publications, the Cowcatcher Magazine focuses on the people of the hobby and rail enthusiast community. Coverage includes news from model railroad clubs, historical societies and museums, including local National Model Railroad Association and Toy Collector’s Association activities.
Each issue is packed full of regional happenings, including a calendar of events for upcoming shows, meets and activities. Also featured is news about real railroads — national and regional. Readers can find informative capsules on the latest news from the region’s transit, tourist and freight railroads.
The Cowcatcher Magazine also includes national coverage of model railroading, complete with lively quotes from top industry officials.
The Cowcatcher Magazine is mailed to subscribers, plus distributed at select hobby shops, shows, museums and railroading points of interests in Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Kansas and Missouri.
