paulbb Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 The RM has definitley improved over the last year, and in this issue I particularly liked the track plan of Andy Peters' GlenRoy, the kind of layout RM never used to feature. The goods shed looks very nice but it is not clear what make it is from the article-is it a Skaledale done up? Perhaps some one out there knows, Andy?

Tim Hale Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 The goods shed looks very nice but it is not clear what make it is from the article-is it -Townstreet? Gentlemen, For whatever reason that I cannot comprehend*, I still prefer the continuity of quality provided by the Toddler. Each issue has a project with decent instructions and it provides a better spread of interesting subjects than the younger magazines that merely seem to scratch the surface, a lot more substance than froth in the old 'un. This month's photos in the product review section were rather good and although Peco don't provide a critical analysis of review items, I think that I prefer to see better photos whilst I can draw my own conclusions whether to buy something. Tim *Maybe the Toddler is my comfort zone? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim V Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Can I suggest that you take the Modeller unread on holiday. I've just got back, and it took me a fair while to get through it, money well spent on a holiday read. In contrast, Hornby magazine didn't take me as long to read.

SquireBev Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 I bought this simply because of the supplement. Going to try a similar station building conversion, but using the Dapol kit as a base rather than the Peco (as it's about 1/3rd of the price!)

Andrew P Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Hi Guys, The Goods Shed! Well it is scratch built but not by me, I picked it up S/Hand. I think it may be bits of Peco / Wills plus other bits but I am very pleased with it. Sorry I should have explained more in the article. There are more pics on the RM Web under Glen Roy.
