My congratulations to the layout booker!

 

An excellent selection indeed.

If the only reply from the moderating team is to be as equally dismissive as that from the editorial team it only confirms what I see as a lack of respect for the readership. 

 

I have tremendous respect for the readership so don't tell me what you think I am or am not doing. 

 

I'm not responding to the other comments.

@AY Mod how does the different in price work with the digital edition of the magazine for those that buy individual issues?

 

Looking at our back issues page https://www.world-of-railways.co.uk/Store/Back-Issues/british-railway-modelling shows we're still charging the same price for the combined issue.

I would be very much interested in the forum's views on this

 

The previous issue at £9.99 had a DVD, not a CD, whereas the current issue, without a DVD, is a lower price. Please compare like with like if you're grumbling.

 

Overall there's been a positive sales reaction to the combined mag with, overall, more value.

Is it viewable anywhere ?

 

Hopefully not, but if it is I don't want anyone posting anything of his on here.

It might not have been the best PR strategy, but they were probably acting out of a protective instinct. 

 

Rightly so when an individual employee is the target of the unpleasantness.

He mocked the Bachmann spokesperson's gait. Not only is just rude to mock a characteristic that someone can't change, it also irked me for another reason.

 

It was more ridiculous than that, the footage was edited and sped up to make it appear significantly different than the original material.

 

There's a malevolence to the content but, for some, that's entertainment. Why does he do it? For his own benefit of course.

I can thoroughly recommend the cakes from there (on the same farm as the butchers).

[R.I.P Dave Myers aka The Hairy Biker.]

Ouch; that's very sad indeed. Always seemed a bloke you'd love to spend some time with.

 

He moved to somewhere not too far from here and used one of the same butchers we do.

Yes, that's right.

 

Yes; it's a regular combination now. The sales information so far indicates it's popular.

Is this a one-off or will it be a regular occurrence?

 

Do you mean BRM and Traction combined?

TL;DR

 

Numbered and named locos sold out way before unnumbered ones = fact which proves my statement.

worked for Heljan though with their unnumbered 47s

 

It didn't really; most were the last to sell and most discounted. A bit of a sad reflection of the how little some were prepared to do even 12-15 years ago effectively killing the idea off for good.

 

O is a bit different though.
