    Picked up the new issue of Trackside today in WHSmith. Really good issue. I noticed when I went shopping this afternoon that it is now also on sale in Sainsbury's.

    Had to go into Town today, so called in WHS and bought a copy of the latest edition of the magazine. Not had much of a chance to read it so far, but it certainly seems to contain a lot of news items - something sadly lacking from SR of late. Hopefully they will not go down the road of the (unwanted, as far as I'm concerned) Model Rail pages or Railwayana price guides that SR seem to be heading into nowadays. If you want model rail information/features, you buy a one of the magazines covering that field - or is it just a cunning plan to get the likes of Hattons to take out advertising space in SR??
    If they are able to keep up the current standard, Trackside will certainly be getting a Subscription from me to replace the one for SR next year....

    Quite agree over that interview with Steve Davies. I have never given the magazine any benefit of any doubt since.

    Discount! SR increased my subscription by 33% so I cancelled it. I'd bought every issue since it started but in the last 12 months it had gone down and down. I thought I might miss it ..... but I don't.

    Sadly after over 40 years (since issue 1) I have ceased paying for Steam Railway - it has been dumbed down too far - I've cancelled my subscription from the next renewal - instead I've taken out a subscription for Trackside.

    The article says that the loco is only intended to run in single chimney and Apple Green until 2024, when the loco will return to the condition she's in now.

    So even less reason to go and see it than there is now.

    My least favourite locomotive and it looks awful in LNER apple green (as any loco does).
    Just my own view of course.

    I still can’t make up my mind about this magazine. It’s well produced but the structure seems a bit disjointed. More important it has a lot of non steam content in which I have zero interest. Having said that Steam Railway is not the same as it used to be. I have stayed with SR, probably out a a false sense of loyalty but they did use one of my pictures as a centre spread a couple of months ago.

    It has a feeling of the post steam world acquisition by Steam Railway . on the plus side the paper and repro is good unlike I'm sorry to say Steam Railway . It also has a penchant for Steam Railway esque headlines and overuse of the!

    It isn't in my local shops so harder to have a look and being probably too honest I only buy one railway magazine now and that is Railway Bylines as shelling out close to a fiver a month to put in recycling feels wrong so I'd rather not buy

    I'm still a bit undecided, though I did cancel my Direct Debit for the SR annual subscription the last time I went near a bank, though the current sub to it doesn't end until September.
    Will get this latest Trackside, as it has an article on the Nick Tinsley GCR rolling stock collection in it and will see how it pans out over the coming months.

    Those two reasons are why I stopped subscribing to various magazines and switched to Readly. I worked out it would cost over £30 a month to read the selection I do on there, there’s no trackside but pretty much all the other usual suspects are. At 7.99 a month it’s great value and no environmental concerns (although I kept all my old issues in our loft, much to my wife’s dismay!!!). It might not be everyone’s cup of tea but I think it’s great and a much better way of receiving the content.

    Now that Trackside seems to be here to stay, could a kind mod please move this thread to the Media section of NP along with the other magazines? (reporting my own post for mod attention)
