Title: N'spirations10 - update
Post by: H on December 10, 2012, 08:59:12 PM
A brief update on the next issue of N'spirations . . . . #10.

The majority of it is now complete and I'm currently working on putting the finishing touches to it. I hope to get it off to the printers by Christmas but that depends on completing some modelling. Additionally, over the Christmas and new years holiday period printers tend to have long breaks so it may not be available until late January. I'll advise of the latest as it becomes known.

In the meantime heres a pic of the cover;

Finally I've got issue #10 finished. It took a little longer that originally thought but it will be the biggest ever produced with 64 pages (up from 56). I'm just waiting on a quote from the printers to work out the new price - it'll obviously be a little dearer as it'll cost more to print - and then I'll be sending it off for printing.

Unfortunately not. But I am looking to increase the page count of the regular publication starting with the new issue;

Hopefully, over the year that will make up for it.

Eventually, when collection/delivery of stock is arranged.

All N'spirations issues have been available through the NGS shop and they still have some back issues although I don't know which ones. However, goods from the NGS shop are only available to NGS members and I place no such restrictions on N'spirations - it is available for anyone to purchase hense being available on ebay.

Not sure, I'll have to check. There's more pages so it'll be heavier and it's price is 20p more.

Hello Grahame,

PayPal confirmation should reach you before  this message. Keep up the good work - your mag plus the NGS Journal is about all the British outline N modeller could ask for.

At last an easy way to get my fix of N'spirations.

Clicked on the above link ordered late Sunday, delivered Tuesday.

Great Service, Great Mag! 

I might even try and re badge one of my locos, if I can pluck up the courage that is.

Signed up for "Newsletter" so hopefully will be advised when next issue available.

Thanks and keep up the good work Graham.

I also ordered on Sunday & the copy arrived today.

It's the first N'Spirations that I've seen & I'm highly impressed. I'll certainly be buying future editions. Fits well with the NGS Journal. I've certainly no regrets in having cancelled my subscription to one of the mainstream mags.

I'm ashamed of myself...

Ordered mine last week, it arrived last Monday as we were packing to go on holiday. I opened the envelope in the car, and it's stayed there since...  :(

In my defence 'me Lud', we were at Center Parcs and cars aren't allowed in so I couldn't get to it for the week.

I must read it this week. Many thanks for an excellent mag and speedy service, much appreciated.

Cheers, Timmo

I've already started work on N'spirations11 with some interesting modelling projects and progess is going very well. However, it probably won't be out until nearer the NGS AGM and as there's also stocks of issue #10 still available.

A new batch is on ebay; http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nspirations10-1-148-N-gauge-magazine-booklet-B14-/121066869065?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item1c3025d149 (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nspirations10-1-148-N-gauge-magazine-booklet-B14-/121066869065?pt=UK_Trains_Railway_Models&hash=item1c3025d149)
