    Lots of great stuff in this issue. Sorry to hear about Oliver Passmann's passing, I have a collection of his projects from traction tire turned MTL GP35 wheels, automated crossing gates and more, he was a Z Scale genius and will be missed.

    Yes, Oli Passmann's passing was sudden and tragic; he was only 51. I too have a collection of his signals and lighting units and I received a package from him earlier this year. In fact, the day before he passed away he had sent me an email about my package being in transit and how he was leaving on vacation to Egypt (one of his favorite places) within 6 hours. Sadly, he never got to Egypt. I've never ever met Oli, but felt a kinship through numerous emails over the years.

    I plan to visit Egypt later this year (Coronavirus permitting), and will raise a glass in his memory... Oli loved his beer.
