About Me

My photo
When i left school back then i was lucky enough to enroll on an engineering apprenticeship. I think this lead me in good stead. I was always one of those children that pulled things apart but actually put them back together again. My first engine given to me at the age of Seven, a Triang Princess Elizabeth. The rest as they say is History. Later in life i got back in to Model Railways and started building Pine Road. This could lead anywhere so i hope you enjoy my Blog.

Here goes.
I have picked up the odd one in the past,
What with Pine Road and Parkstone in a near completed state (if they ever are) and possibly, a new project on the horizon, can i raise my standards even higher.
Will this be a whole new experience in Railway Modelling.

Now, i realise that you can occasionally see them in W. H. Smiths and the like but i don't venture into these establishments very often.

Colin,
MRJ publishes 8 issues each year, costing £36. They also offer 4 issues at £18, making 12 issues a total of £54 inc. postage.
I've just clicked on your link to Newstand to see that they advertise 12 issues for £69.
That doesn't seem cheaper to me. Am I missing something?

Hi Noel.
I should do more research, you are not missing anything. I went to this site

http://www.titfield.co.uk/Wild-Swan/MRJ-Journal.htm

and got the impression that they didn't do subscription. Issue No 254 came through the door yesterday and inside the first page it gives you the details for the subscription. 8 issues-£36, 4-issues £18 post free to the UK. You live and learn.
