RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted July 21, 2011 RMweb Premium Share Posted July 21, 2011 Is it just me or does the paper quality of the pages inside (not the cover) feel a bit cheap and leathery this time? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
59205 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 Is it just me or does the paper quality of the pages inside (not the cover) feel a bit cheap and leathery this time? It's not just you John i was thinking the same. The picture quality on a number of photo's in this months magazine is extremely poor in my opinion. On a more positive note, the reviews in the modelling section are a good read this month. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 The Stormex show at Cheltenham on 6th August is previewed, as is the 'other' Railex at Butterley the following weekend. Well worth a read is part 7 of the Elcot Road project by Simon and Terry Bendall, dealing this month with flat-bottom turnout construction using a Colin Craig kit.

Leander Posted July 22, 2011 Share Posted July 22, 2011 The picture quality on a number of photo's in this months magazine is extremely poor in my opinion. Looks as though cost-cutting is under way. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
