Angliacan Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) SRI 5 now out I have replied to latest editorial by Chris Ford in SRI 5, he mentioned about not pleasing all the people all the time. Well I think Chris is getting the mix about right, he can only publish the articles he receives. So if you have an interesting article or photos of both models or prototype let Chris know.Over the years of I have been a reader of various Chris Ellis model titles and developed an eclectic interest in railways worldwide. I have an interest in everything and anything it common dominator been the iron rails the railways run on. I have submitted article on unusual subjects, the Old Pool Bank Quarry Railway featured in SRI 3 & a photo of Ransome's Small Shunting Tractor in SRI 5. With an article of the Island of Mallorca, Soller Train & Tram also submitted. Hopefully some of my prototype photos will provide inspiration for modellers.I have put many of my eclectic interest in photos up on my Flickr site, in different albums. https://www.flickr.com/photos/75088377@N06/ The one that sums it up is my 35th Years Album as going through older photos I find my oldest taken photo from 1978 of a Douglas Horse Tram, so the Collection features 1 photo a year since then, with horse, steam, diesel, electric & battery powered trains, freight & passenger, modern & heritage, 1st and Last days, oldest ones to then newest on special or plain ordinary days, all types of railways including funiculars and rack in the UK, Ireland, Europe & Canada.

don Posted March 12, 2016 Share Posted March 12, 2016 I think Chris Ford has got it about right. Like others i enjoy reading about most things that run on rails.always something new to learn. I like the mix in SRI,i have been a long time reader of MTI and purchased as many back numbers as possible to fill the gaps. They come out regularly if a bit of inspiration is needed. Although i model the North American system i like a bit of variety and everything is welcome. I still buy the ocasional British and continental railway mag. if something takes my eye. So for me roll on SRI number 6. Don. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium CloggyDog Posted April 30, 2016 RMweb Premium Share Posted April 30, 2016 Issue 6 dropped through the letterbox this morning with the usual eclectic mix of subject matter and scales.

awoodford Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 Yes indeed. Well worth investing in another 6 issues. I'm particularly intrigued to see the Mallorca trams article in the next issue, having 'discovered' the line on Google maps recently. Alan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Angliacan Posted June 24, 2016 Share Posted June 24, 2016 (edited) SRI 7 should be hitting the doormat of the world soon. Got mine this am. Good mixed issue as ever.

Rather pleased another article & photos published this time on the Soller Tram & Train in Mallorca. https://www.flickr.com/photos/75088377@N06/albums/72157652276673972 Edited June 24, 2016 by Angliacan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
