Tase Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 I've downloaded it but there are a number of corrupt pages (just grey blanks). I'm going to delete the issue and redownload to see if the problems disappears. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold sjrixon Posted September 5, 2014 RMweb Gold Share Posted September 5, 2014 I've only got the first 20 something pages.. Taking a while to download.. There is also an issue with the multi picture box for Bacup, as there are duplicates in there. (Android version) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Administrators Phil Parker Posted September 5, 2014 Administrators Share Posted September 5, 2014 Guest editors for this issue were Stubby47 and St. Simon. We asked them to write the day up for us so everyone could get an idea how BRM is put together. Stubby47's notes are now on the BRM Blog. St. Simon's will appear next week.

WD0-6-0 Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 The bumper pack is simply the mag + DVD so if you're a mag subscriber you can download the DVD content for 99p.Thanks. Sorry, I misunderstood i thought the bumper pack was separate. Rhys Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norwenglish Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 How long will this issue be available for? As I'm coming to the UK at the end of the month and would love to pick up a copy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Centurion Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Though I expect there is a reason, and I might be reading it wrong...but if you look at the polls of what people wanted it doesn't seem to tally up with what's in the mag. According to the poll that 4 top layouts were Bacup, Little Bytham, Westerham, and Warren Lane. Did the owner of Westerham not get his homework done in time What happened to "Were they really that colour?" Top of the oddments poll but not mentioned? If stubby was the editor...where is the "toilet" article???? Not bothered either way, it's always a good read regardless and this is an original approach. I was looking through my stack of older BRMs other day, it's amazing how different it is to the new style (the new being heaps better obviously!) I haven't seen any of the DVDs mind you, I can't help but think they would have similar production values to the old "caravan show" that used to be on cable, having said that I did watch the Jason Shron interview,. it was funny, and not as "caravany" as I thought it might be.

Tase Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 How long will this issue be available for? As I'm coming to the UK at the end of the month and would love to pick up a copy. The November issue goes on sale in the shops on 9 October according the current issue. Obviously, previous months digital editions can be bought at any time after publication date.

St. Simon Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 What happened to "Were they really that colour?" Top of the oddments poll but not mentioned? If stubby was the editor...where is the "toilet" article???? Hi, Both of them are in there, the "Were they really that colour?" Is listed under the Prototype Interest: Locomotive Colours in Bens original thread and the "Toliet Article" is listed as A Gentlemens Restroom - an interesting diorama. Stu's Loo is in there, it was being photographed as part of our Guest Editor Day! The reason for the change in layouts is because the poll was all 'OO' layouts and if you read Stubbys account of the day (http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/blog/1535/entry-14716-stubby47-at-brm/ ), he mentions the need for balance of an issue, so the inclusion of Apa Park gives that balance of 'N' and 'OO' No fear, Westerham will appear in a future issue!

AngryMeerkat Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Sorry to Ben and the usual team, but this issue is the best in a long while in my opinion (I've only got the digital version). The content is all very good with some excellent articles (particularly the NR article and the piece about colours), photography is brilliant and the range of interests covered is again excellent. This is the first issue I've read cover to cover, and can't wait to read again because there is plenty of easy reading information which is well written and conveyed. Massive well done to everyone involved with this issue, including the guest editors who did a great job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

fepatton Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 On the strength of the table of contents, I decided to subscribe to the electronic edition for a year. However, the only issue that's showing up in my queue is the Track Plans and Layout Design supplement. (Brilliant, by the way.) Is the October issue not included in my subscription because it's already considered a back issue? Best regards, Fred Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chrisf Posted September 12, 2014 Share Posted September 12, 2014 I do believe someone is trying to whip up hysteria again. Chris I don't see any hysteria Chris; it's a list of what's in the mag and there genuinely is some great content in there so I think it's a bit off to try and make an offhand comment. Oh dear. My attempt at levity has fallen flat. I congratulate those who spotted that and apologise to everyone else. My copy arrived yesterday. Thanks to some dodgy eyedrops last month I'm a bit behind with my reading but I shall take it with me to my hotel room before arriving at RMweb live on Sunday with tail between legs.

L&Y Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 Well I had to buy this one. Love Bacup & there are even some other interesting articles in there. Lol. Great idea the Shakespeare cup. Glad you shoehorned that into the back page. A fitting tribute. Well done to all involved in this issue! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattingleycustom Posted September 15, 2014 Share Posted September 15, 2014 Best issue in ages, due in no small part to the contributions from the RMweb folk. Bacup is excellent, a real stunner. The article on railway colours was very interesting, and Tony Wright's Little Bytham never looked better than with a proper LNER A4 hauling a train of superbly weathered teak coaches behind it, perfect!
