N Gauge NOW

CarriageShed · February 13, 2015, 01:28:01 PM

I've just got my issue 1 and it's a pretty good read. It's also a very well written read - no turgid text or littering of spelling mistakes here (I found two in the whole magazine so far). I'm looking forward to the next issue at the end of this month, and will certainly volunteer an article or two.

Got no.1 today and ordered the rest. An excellent read!

I hadn't seen this thread until now. Seems to be a good read so I've ordered 1 of just about everything

Ditape · February 14, 2015, 11:37:13 PM

I ordered the magazine and could not put issue 1 down a good read I am egerly waiting for issue 2.

Many thanks to all for the reviews...
The US postage made it very expensive, so reading the reviews gave me the confidence to splash out the £75 to get some new reading material.

OK - the first of the 2015 issues was due in February and there's still no sign of it

Has anyone else received a copy yet?

Ditape · March 07, 2015, 02:00:09 PM

No sign of the Mag here in Swindon.

Trainfish · March 07, 2015, 02:39:27 PM

Not in Devizes either.

I received all the others within a couple of days of ordering though about 3 weeks ago.

I made a post on another thread about this mag, I don't think the magazine is due for publishing until later this month. I'll have a look at my emails when I get home.

Cheers

Neal.

Don't worry Neal, I've found it in one of my emails:

"THANK you for subscribing to N GAUGE NOW: THE MAGAZINE for 2015 - and this is to confirm that the first issue of your subscription, Issue 2, is now scheduled for publication on or around 12th March. It is then planned for further issues to follow at roughly three-monthly intervals thereafter - with publication dates around the end of May, August and November."

So around another week yet which is just as well as I haven't read the others yet!

I ordered Issue 1 on February 26th and received a "Thank you for your order" e-mail on the same day.
Rather worryingly, up to now that is all that I HAVE received so I hope that, when it arrives, it IS worth the wait !

Mark, I got a cost of £40 for a 1 year subscription to the US. Did you order some of the other items as as well?

Much as I'm interested, I'm holding off until I make my final decision as to what scale I will work in.

Yes, I ordered one of just about everything. So far I only received the four list-type guides, no annual or 2014 issue 1 yet...

Maybe they will come with my first 2015 issue?

JimF · March 08, 2015, 06:00:22 PM

Ok, that explains the price difference.

If I do settle on working in N, I'll definitely send in a sub, and most likely buy the other issues, as well.

What area of NC are you in? Just curious.
