Ken, I have met Diane Carney many times trackside and have bought several nameplates of her. She came to our club a couple of years ago and gave a presentation on nameplates. She is a rather quiet unassuming kind of person, not one to blow her own trumpet but clearly knowledgeable in our field. In her presentation she showed a picture of the vice she used to cut out the etched name plates with a hack saw and then hand file and polish them to size. The vice had seen more work than mine! Her husband, Peter Walker, drives mainline steam, runs a 5" gauge LNER Pacific and a full size steam wagon. None of this guarantees that she will be a good editor of ME but I think we should give the lady a chance - she can't be any worse than recent appointees.
