NOTE: McMillan Publications will be closed from February 18 through March 4, 2010. Orders received during this time will be filled beginning March 5. We apologize in advance for any inconvenience.
11-17-09: NOTE: Except for orders of small items, most of the products we ship are mailed via USPS Media Mail. This is a space available mail which works well most of the year and helps us keep shipping costs to a minimum. However, when mail volumes increase, as will happen around the Christmas holidays, Media Mail can often be delayed. If you are ordering items that are time sensitive, please call us at 303-456-4564 to make sure that the items are in stock and that we select the best shipping options for your needs.
2-4-10: Catalog
156 is the current catalog now being mailed out with
orders. The catalog is effective 1-27-10 through 6-30-10, unless superceded.
9-6-09: McMillan Publications is proud to announce the publication of Mike Danneman's new book LAST OF A BREED. The 240-page, hardcover book features the last ex-D&RGW Tunnel Motors operating out of Helper, Utah. The book is laced with stories from the ex-Rio Grande men who operated these locomotives, maintained the track and serviced the locomotives. The book is available now on our web site.
9-6-09: McMillan Publications has published 6 color calendars for 2010: Santa Fe, BNSF, Union Pacific, Rio Grande, Norfolk Southern, and CSX. The 2010 calendars are avialable now.
4-13-09: The 2010 calendars will be slightly smaller than those published in prior years. The old calendars measured 14 inches wide by 11 inches high. The 2010s will measure 14 inches wide by 9-3/4 inches high (opening to 19-1/2 inches). This change allows us to take advantage of some significent paper savings, which will permit us to keep the same calendar retail prices for a while longer. In addition, the new photo format (ratio of width vs height) more closely resembles that of a 35mm slide which will let us use good slides that were once rejected because of their composition.
Highball Productions and Railway Productions are now offering their newest DVDs widescreen formats. We haven't been carrying the widescreen DVDs as separate line items on our web site, but have started doing so. You will now be able to order either the standard full screen or the widescreen versions off the web. Previously, we just listed the full screen version. Some DVDs are offered ONLY in widescreen, however, so make sure you read the description text to make sure you get what you want. McMillan Publications is no longer listing VHS video tapes in its catalog. DVDs have taken over the market, and maintaining a dual inventory is just too expensive. We have a number of VHS tapes still in our inventory and some are listed on this web site, As tapes sell out, we will not reorder them and we will no longer special order VHS tapes.
TLC
continues to announce a host of new books it has scheduled for publication.
The release dates keep getting pushed back. We
will carry most of the new books and will post them in the "New
Releases" section as soon as they are in stock,
however, we will not put them on the web site until
they are received. It is our practice to not put items
on the site until they are received in stock.
