Passing of another milestone author

 It was just posted by Charlie Getz that Malcom Furlow passed away.  Post quoted below

Just got notice from Jennifer Furlow that Malcolm passed away today from the effects of long Covid. Malcolm was known for his art and modeling including the seminal San Juan Central HOn3 project layout for MR back in the 1980’s, now part of the NMRA exhibit on Scale Model Railroading at the CSRM in Sacramento..

Sad news. He was a character but an inspiration to many with a distinct modeling style.
