Certainly with 16mm Today (the house organ of the Association of 16mm Narrow Gauge Modellers) we have set up a Paypal account, which considerably reduces subscription costs for those members not living in the UK. I will most certainly put this idea forward to Atlantic Publishers to see if this facility can be made available for subscribers to GardenRail. I would also add that current subscribers are likely to notice an increase in live steam coverage over the next few months. They will further notice that there is much increased trade coverage in the new 'Trading Places feature (as from March issue - available this month), where reports from the various manufacturers, information regarding the latest products, be it peripheral items such as safety valve covers for Accucraft locos or slide bar and crosshead fittings for Roundhouse with photos and prices, or the latest locomotives - like the new one coming up from Roundhouse or the two new ones (inc coal firing) from Cheddar. "Trading Places' will also cover the rather less well known manufacturers and builders, such as an up and coming TP feature on "Tootle Engineering", who produce Australian prototypes from the engineering bases of Roundhouse and Argyle and will also will be a place where you can find the sorts of steamy 'bits and pieces' that one often only gets to hear about if one is a regular at the various UK shows...... -- Tag Gorton Editor Garden Rail Atlantic Publishers http://www.trevor-ridley.co.uk/index.html Editor 16mm Today http://www.16mmngmodellers.org.uk/
