Where do you prefer to get railway news? The internet or a railway mag? I usually get the railway news from the internet, because its free, but you cant beat a good railway mag, but they are too expensive. Perhaps the magazine is a dying thing.
The internet is also quicker. I don't think magazines will die, they may evolve and carry less news, as they are a bit out of date particularly if they are published monthly, but not everyone is such a hard core enthusiast that they check the web every day for railway news. There are people with a general interest in many subjects; for example, I myself occasionally buy ship and boat magazines, (sometimes for a long train journey!) but my interest isn't more than casual really.
We are aware of an issue with emails from the Forum to Microsoft-based email accounts (hotmail/outlook/live.com email addresses). This is being looked into currently, thanks for your patience meanwhile.
