Dapol megafret review, Bachmann 105 review, and moystn monthly. main mag also good. class 58 feature as 'cull begins', railtours ect. national express east anglia feature also very good.

 

***although captions are mixed up in east anglia article. theres a shot of a 170 at whittlesea and the caption has been mixed up with that of a 170 at ely on the previouse page.***

I think the picture quality is poor this month; particularly the pages(22-25) on the class 58 cull- they all seem too dark.

One of the major reasons for me buying is its high quality repro.

Hopefully a one off and not a consequence of new management........

Hi Guys;

 

IMHB, I thought this months is a little poor. Seems a lot of adverts in the models section and the only N gauge report is negative (I model in 'N')..

 

Article wise, the Anglia thing is weak and the 58 article seems a space filler. Apart from that, Irish news seems reduced and a lot of other stuff seems regurgitated. The highlight for me is the news of a Yeovil-Oxford Class 50 article...but how 'solid' is that gen?

 

I'm afraid this (and the last issue) has me questioning whether to maintain a subscription...

 

Later;

STU from EGDL
