shortliner Posted November 12, 2010 Author Share Posted November 12, 2010 You don't HAVE to read it all at once! Just think how it will occupy those dark winter nights, ideal for the armchair modellers amongst us! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jez Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 I do far too much armchair modelling as it is! I've got 2 exhibitions I need to get Harrington ready for - I can see loads of excuses coming on - too cold to go out in the shed! I'll have a flick through Railmodel Journal instead!!

doctor quinn Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 Railmodel Journal and Model Railroading were rather good mags, glad to see that we can access them again. Nick Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alastairq Posted November 12, 2010 Share Posted November 12, 2010 the annoying thing is...I have piles of back issues of Railmodel Journal...and was seriously thinking about scanning relevant [to me]articles, and consigning them to the blue bin.......seeing as they spend most of their time sitting around gathering dust! now it seems, I could have consigned them years ago! Still, the piles of mags do sterling service weighing down the base of some bookcases.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

highpeak Posted November 13, 2010 Share Posted November 13, 2010 spot on Jack ....... Regards Trevor .. Brilliant find! I have part 1 of that two-parter, but not part 2. I have a couple of photos of the open-top pulpwood cars, but the article sheds a bit more light on them. I can see where a lot of time is going this winter. Remember, if you haven't read it, it's a new magazine! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
