Hello
Those new registerys are very nice,have bought all 3 of them. In the 66 registery there was a size diffrernce on the writing,I liked the size from page 343 and out,it was easyer to read.
Will the editor of the registerys to come please use that size?
The 66 registery was over 670 pages with 2392 cars in it. Those registerys to come will have well over 3000 cars in them,those registerys will be huge with only a glued spine.
Will it be a idea to split those registerys in 350 and 500 editions to keep the size down on them?

Regards
Tor

Actually, the font switch was an unintentional boo-boo  ::)
Happened during final page composition and since only the text was proofed, it got missed as a simple font bit switch error.
It ended up making the volume thicker than planned. It probably will not happen again.

We do realize that subsequent volumes will have even more pages. We are already exploring alternate binding techniques to support these extra pages....
..as well as improving the shipping containers to insure the books arrive in good shape.
