I was gifted a year's current Trains and MR rags to read and pitch.
I read Raoul was reported to have died early this year at 88.
Always fun to argue with him.

Talented guy. Most of my steam models are powered with his gearboxes. He gave me a 40% discount. Making it to 88 is kinda cool. I got the factory tour once.

From another forum:
The Pacific Northwest Railroad Archive is pleased to announce the upload of 348 logging railroad photos taken by Raoul Martin on Vancouver Island and Washington State in the 1950's and 1960's. These are photos of Comox Logging and Railway, MacMillan Bloedel, Hillcrest Lumber, BC Forest Museum, Crown Willamette Paper and Rayonier.
