Narrow Gauge & Industrial Railway Modelling REVIEW

 

And I hope that this time the consolidator remembers that he is meant to actually deliver copies, not throw them away.

Has anyone received their subscription copy of "Narrow Gauge and Industrial Railway Modelling Review" No.108 yet? On their website blog it says that "Issue 108 has been sent to the printers. Despatch to UK subscribers should occur end of October."

Note that this seems to have been changed recently - I seem to remember that the entry originally said "the middle of October"!

Yes it was changed (by me). I understand from Roy they have started being sent out today so UK readers should get them in a day or two.

Thanks Rod – at least I am not alone!

I thought there may have been some other Australian subscribers on this Group, to gain a better overall impression on when the magazine was received?

Hello Bruce,

?

Like Rod, I’m in Victoria, and I’ve not seen my copy yet either.? Unfortunately the use of a mail consolidator in the UK, which apparently reduces the postage costs, ?has seriously impacted on the delivery time to Australia from how it used to be.?? I guess because there are so few copies coming to Australia, it’s low priority at the consolidators.

?

For some reason I now can’t reply using the forum, the page does not respond to the mouseclick. So this is being posted as an email, so I’ve no idea if it’ll come through. ?(Recently upgraded ( ???)? to Windoooze 10 )?

I can relate to the logistics. I guess we have no other option, than to wait! I am sure the reading content will be all worth it – when it is received!

A note to those concerned about the time it takes to receive their copies of the REVIEW.

Before Bob Barlow took over the magazine, myself and my wife, Anjela used to bag up, address and frank every single subscriber copy. Then I took them down to the nearest sorting office for distribution. Unfortunately, Anjela fell pray to Heart & lung failure - and is now an invalid. I myself had to have my right Kidney removed because of cancer - which is now in my bladder. These events meant Bob’s offer to take over the magazine came at a most opportune time. Bob soon grew tired of despatching the magazine himself, and changed printers to one local to him which also offered despatch. No one could have predicted that Bob himself would die suddenly - he was the fit one . . .

I was determined to keep the magazine going, as seamlessly as possible, and before he died Bob and his wife rowena very kindly gifted the magazine back to me - but my health is now such that I can’t go back to direct distribution. The UK issues get delivered within a space of about 4 working days, as the printer reaches the number of items for economic despatch very quickly. The further away subscribers are, the longer it takes, as the numbers take longer to reach the target required. ?I know the copies to Europe and the USA have been arriving - as I’m seeing renewals from those areas.?

As I approach the age of seventy it is quite a strain on my health just putting together each issue for you - though I do now get invaluable help from John Clutterbuck (web site & admin) and David Hughes (proof reading). In amongst preparing each issue and bringing it to print, I also have to process orders for back issues, books etc., entirely on my own. Without 'mail consolidation', I could not provide the magazine physically - the saving in cost is really a bonus that has helped keep the cover stable over the past six or more years.

Please be patient . . .?

Hi Roy,
?
Thank-you for your very detailed explanation, and we understand the efforts of all those involved with the magazine production.
?
Please note that the intention of my posting was not criticism, however I asked the question, just in case my copy had gone astray?
?
We all appreciate the very good work of your editorial team, and we look forward to receiving your magazines!
?
Best regards
Bruce

Please can someone let us know when it does arrive in USA, Canada, AUS and NZ so we can understand how long it is taking and manage expectations for future issues.
Just one message per country would be fine.

Thanks

Will do John

Please can someone let us know when it does arrive in USA, Canada, AUS and NZ so we can understand how long it is taking and manage expectations for future issues.
Just one message per country would be fine.

Thanks
John

Thanks Rod,

That's 28 days after UK delivery. Just USA and NZ to confirm now if anyone is on this forum (what do you mean you don't read the Review )
