One year on: Of magazines and help

As a complete newcomer then its been a learning curve since day one.  (I'm working on my post of things that I shouldn't have done or bought).

One thing I intend to cover is what books have made it onto my bookshelf but first I remind people of the magazines and some helpful videos.

Garden Railways is the American bi-monthly magazine and I was bought a subscription last year for my birthday and I really look forward to the magazine coming through the door. I've even bought a couple of back issues on specific topics.  What I discovered today is that they have put some introductory videos on line.

Whilst from a more English perspective there is The model Railway Channel which has put the Mark Found videos up on the internet.  There's a link to part 1, but there are lots on the whole series which I didn't see first time round.  

And then there is the English published Garden Rail which I always have a look at and have been buying most issues, but if there is too much live steam and/or brass scratchbuilding then I have occasionally not bought it and put the money into the train fund instead.
