Home Railway Journal - relaunching in 2014

Post by Benjamin Maggi »

I heard that the magazine was going to be re-launched in January 2014. Is that still in the works? I don't know what the new website is, and their Facebook page hasn't changed.

Patience Ben.

My new director-level position at a Fortune 500 company has stolen literally every moment of my time.

HRJ 2014 will be coming, but a little later than expected. I've got my 2 1/2" gauge TOBY, a new paint technique for live steamers, and a great way to restore old books & magazines. That, plus a few surprises...

Cheers,

Chris

You might want to modify your signature then, as it instructs us to watch for it in January!

The question for all of us is do we have to repay the subscription, or are we all still in a data base saying we paid when Matt was running it?

Chris,
WOW what exciting news! I'd like to know as well about payment for issues in subscriptions not received. I know Matt really dropped the ball but he last stated that those fees would be honored. I sincerely hope this is the case. Could you please update this information?

Chris,

Can you add something to the mailing label to indicate how many issues are remaining on our subscription?

Any updates? Our 11 year old still spends hours reading the old issues and is looking forward to the new issues.

Thank you.
