stewartingram Posted August 8, 2012 Share Posted August 8, 2012 Last month I purchased a single digital copy online and was suitably impressed to take out a year's digital subscription last Sunday. However, I can't find it available anywhere for me, though the subscription is listed as successful. I am assuming that as it originally stated it would be available on Tuesday, I would have to wait, and get it after then, but nothing is available!

250BOB Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Having returned to purchasing BRM since its coming together with RMweb, I can honestly say, I think it is going from strength to strength. The September issue which I bought at lunchtime today is outstanding.....the BRM team need to be congratulated on raising the bar to such a high standard, its a stunning issue. Well done indeed.....it is back on my regular magazine purchasing list after a gap of a couple of years.!!! Bob Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Y Posted August 9, 2012 Share Posted August 9, 2012 Sharp-eyed readers may have spotted a different photographers name in the MI section. My lad Harry (15) did his work experience with me last month whilst classmates had the luxury of normal hours shelf-stacking etc and certainly developed his capabilities to go with his art and graphics courses. All I did was a bit of sheet waggling in the background of the photos and the rest was all down to him after he'd made notes following me prepare other images. After he finished writing up his records he was then promoted to assistant chilli maker for Members' Day. I reckon he put in over 70 hours work that week in one form or another.

RMweb Gold mudmagnet Posted August 9, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 9, 2012 Another very good issue - I've bought the last few issues in preference to the other magazines on the shelf. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted August 9, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 9, 2012 I was amused to see a BRM magazine opened at a certain Static Grass article, by a Mr A York, being used to advertise the selling of static grass and associated tool on a sales stand at the recent Plymouth show.

aberdare Posted August 10, 2012 Share Posted August 10, 2012 Picked up my copy this morning and was impressed once again, will be phoning up to register for subscription very soon. Article on puddles was very good and is something I will look at as I wanted to model a showery day anyway. I wonder if puddles will become the new 'Bus on the bridge'?

RMweb Gold Metr0Land Posted August 11, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 11, 2012 I've just bought 3 out of the last 4 issues*. It really is a big turnaround and shows a lot of hard work has gone in by many people. Until recently I barely bought it once a year, and it had the air of the old Model Railway Constructor when it was in terminal decline (IMHO). Going from zero to hero is no mean feat.

Administrators SteveCole Posted August 11, 2012 Administrators Share Posted August 11, 2012 Hi all, Thanks for all of your comments. It really does mean a lot to all of the BRM Team. We've worked really hard changing the magazine into something we are now really proud of. Reading the positive comments above makes it all worthwhile!!! Thanks all. Have a great weekend.

RMweb Premium Physicsman Posted August 13, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 13, 2012 BRM must be gaining in popularity as it took quite a bit of finding! There was a time when the shelves of Smiths were full of copies - eventually tracked the September issue down to Morrisons...one copy left. I'm not surprised. Model Rail has "reformatted" itself - and done a good job. But BRM is, in my view, currently the best of the bunch. I'll buy one more issue then, probably, subscribe.The Blackpool and Fylde layout, along with the Practical BRM articles, was outstanding (not to mention MI). Only one thing missing with my copy - it wasn't in a bag...can I complain, please?!! Jeff Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold ChrisN Posted September 1, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 1, 2012 . Only one thing missing with my copy - it wasn't in a bag...can I complain, please?!! Jeff No, No, NO! No bags please. I do not always look on RMWeb before a purchase so I browse in the shop. The bag stopped me buying one for ages Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Stubby47 Posted September 2, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 2, 2012 Interesting to see BRM magazine being advertised in WHS as part of their display posters - the Modelling Interest section had the latest BRM front page printed on it.

RMweb Premium Brit70053 Posted September 3, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted September 3, 2012 No, No, NO! No bags please. I do not always look on RMWeb before a purchase so I browse in the shop. The bag stopped me buting one for ages Shouldn't worry ChrisN, I think the No Bag thing has become something of a standing joke among some RM Webbers, mention of it was specifically forbidden (may still be, but I hope the Mods are being a bit more lenient re BRM) until recently when the mag started to appear unbagged at newsagents. I think subscribing is now the only way you'll get this mag in a bag. Regards, John Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
edcayton Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Whisper it quietly, but do we think that ChrisN may be a nom de pleume for a certain journalist/photographer who works for a competitor? Ed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
