I was reading this thread just as the post arrived. No bills just the journal. No time to read it till later.

Mine arrived today, together with a wee parcel from the NGS containing some bits that I needed, and, frustratingly a single RNA Nuclear Runner wagon - when I need two. :headbutt:

Nice looking little mag, as always.  Lots of interesting stuff, and plenty of 'eye candy' to ogle and get inspired by.

Was that an order from TPM? I thought there were none left, or did you get the last one?

Has anyone done the competition yet?

I think they have made three mistakes in the numerical hints of the song titles.

Arlo Guthrie - 4, 3, 2, 7 should be 4, 2, 3, 7

Gladys Knight and the Pips - 8, 5, 2, 6 should be 8, 5, 2, 7

Gordon Lightfoot - 8, 7 should be 8, 8

Anyone agree/ disagree?

cheers John.

Agree with you about Arlo Guthrie and Gladys Knight but think Gordon Lightfoot is correct ....

What about Glen Miller?

Gordon Lightfoot - I think it should be railroad not railway?

I did not count the letters in the first word so I agree with you, it should be 11, 4, 4

cheers John.

11,4,4 is what I think also. Gordon Lightfoot title has neither word in it !!! (if, of course, I'm correct .....). Wouldn't be fair to say any more on here.

Arrived home and this was sat on my bed. A good read and some very inspirational layouts as usual.

Only half way through reading but getting there with on and off reading haha.

I agree with "Arlo Guthrie - 4, 3, 2, 7 should be 4, 2, 3, 7" and "Glenn Miller - 13, 4, 4 should be 11, 4, 4"

Not read all of my copy yet either.

For those who have queried what locos Union Mills are producing, there is an advert with full list in the NGS magazine.

Sorry to be the voice of dissent but this issue didn't have a lot to hold my attention :(
Even reading the members adverts (loadsa LMS stuff for sale) it took me only about 15-20 minutes to read. The layouts featured seemed way too cramped and overloaded.
Hey ho - here's to issue 3/13

That's often the case I find too but then I pick it up months later and find something interesting!  :laugh:
