Simon That's good to hear, Simon. Do you know what the future arrangements will be? My sub expires after issue 282. Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold queensquare Posted February 14, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 14, 2021 On 11/02/2021 at 11:22, Not Jeremy said: Sadly no pigeons, rather more prosaically Royal Mail or UK division of La Poste.... For information, issue 282 has just been given over to production, I must finish my advert before it's too late(!) This will be for (shameless plug alert) Wild Swan's new book "Geoff Williams' Aylesbury LNWR", which if I say so myself is a real belter. It features Andy York's superb colour photography of the layout when it was exhibited at "Railex" 2016, courtesy of Andy and Warners/BRM magazine. This should be printed next week if all goes according to plan. Simon Fantastic news, really looking forward to this. Aylesbury is up there with Buckingham as one of my all time favourite layouts. jerry 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted February 14, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 14, 2021 With No.282 progressing, I’d better have a look through Simon’s list of MRJ back issues to add in with my order. Rob. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium corneliuslundie Posted February 15, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 15, 2021 I have also had the opportunity to see and operate the layout once or twice, probably with Paul on a 5561 group visit, and echo his comments. It may well be a non-GWR/Welsh book which joins my collection. Jonathan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob Fair comment. OK - there's nothing intrinsically wrong with GWR BLTs (even if some people are reputed to prefer a different sort of BLT, served on a plate). However, there have been times when a disproportionate number of exhibition layouts, magazine articles and railway books have had this "flavour' - which seemed to generate a bit of kickback to more of the same. "Variety is the spice of life" - and all that. Incidentally, this talk of a MRJ back issue list sounds rather interesting. I hope nobody minds if I enquire how I'd be able to see such a list - as it's possible that certain issues might be of use with some build projects.

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted February 16, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 16, 2021 I'm pleased to say that my renewal has clearly been received by Cygnet, because the postman brought MRJ 281 this morning. There, you all wanted to know that, didn't you? 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold NHY 581 Posted February 16, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 16, 2021 (edited) Huw Either Google Model Railway Journal Index and up it will pop, current as of Dec last year or Titfield Thunderbolt has a list though early issues lack a description of content.
