	: Martin Evans (1916 – 29 December 2003) was a major contributor to the English recreational magazine Model Engineer. He was promoted from Technical Editor to Editor of the magazine in January 1966. His editorship, along with a change in almost all other staff on the magazine, is credited as having saved it from decline. The next year, the prolific model locomotive designer 'Curly' Lawrence, aka [[LBSC]], died. At this point, Martin Evans took over the serialization of locomotive designs, apparently rivaling [[LBSC] in his output. He inaugurated the International Model Locomotive Efficiency Competition (IMLEC) in 1969. Evans was an erudite editor, whose time in the job was distinguished by a stable of brilliant contributors who came into the magazine from lifetime careers at the very height of British toolroom engineering. At this time the magazine was of extraordinary quality, reflected even in the learned and passionate debates that raged in the letters columns and demanded the best of the reader's intellect. He retired from the editorship in June 1977, concentrating on locomotive designs. He died on 29 December 2003.		: Martin Evans (1916 – 29 December 2003) was a major contributor to the English recreational magazine Model Engineer.
