Scalefour in print

Postby Paul Willis » Thu Dec 08, 2022 10:43 pm

This thread is a variant of an idea that has been has been running in the GERS News for a number of years, under the heading "Seen in Reading" - a humorous comment on a strange place to see a GER locomotive.

Inspired by Chris Gough highlighting that his layout Cadhay Sidings is in Hornby Magazine, I went out and bought a copy. And a very good read the article was too. But if it hadn't been for Chris pointing that out, I'd have missed it entirely!

Hence this topic. When you spot an article with a Scalefour/P4/18.83 subject, then please do post a brief note about it in this topic. Whether it is a layout, track and associated gubbins, a locomotive, or other item of rolling stock, if it's to P4 standards, please let us know about it.

Then over time, not only will we all learn what is out in the press in order to perhaps purchase a copy at the time, but this topic could build up into a valuable archive of material published by Society members.

I look forward to seeing contributions!

Best wishes,
Paul

The Archive does hold published articles (but probably not all) up to about 2016.

And a few years back in 217, there were articles about the planning and construction of Burntisland in Railway Modeller.
