Model Rail Reviews

Useless

See box on

Australia

After repeated attempts to get it to work on a 4 yr old iPad I've given up ( thought I could view it on a laptop but no) wasted time and money cancelled my subscription

Buggy app!

gaucij on

Australia

Paid for a magazine that I can’t even read! A slow, unresponsive and clunky app that doesn’t make reading this magazine an enjoyable experience. Haven’t used this app in 5 years, thought I’d give it another go and just as bad. Using an iPhone X

Easy to subscribe to a year of Model Rail

Stickybits on

Australia

I received an iPad just this week. First app was Model Rail and I have already subscribed to a years worth of magazines plus downloaded a couple weeks f back issues that I had missed in print over I here in Australia. I work offshore and can now take my iPad with my favourite read with out loading up my bag on the helicopter with hard copy mags - a real easy to use process thanks MR!

Freezes up

Not sure will use again on

Australia

Downloads of purchased magazines always seem to collapse and stop downloading at about 85% complete. Have to cancel and restart downloads and restart app. Advice from app support is to uninstall and then re-install app to try and solve issue. this means I will have to download all the issues again, using up my download limits. Unsatisfactory performance

First class read

Big E53 on

United Kingdom

This is by far the best of its kind in the market. The contributors are excellent and I’m learning lots from them and getting a better idea of how to proceed with my own layout which is in its early stages.

All my monies lost

the flashman on

United Kingdom

Because of failing memories I am un able to connect to read magazines I have paid good money for. Very disappointed.

Awful upgrade or rather downgrade

mgcted on

United Kingdom

The magazine is illserved by this app. The previous upgrade was bad enough. This one has rendered reading the magazine impossible. The icons don’t work. The search is clumsy. The whole renders the subscription worthless and unless there is a very swift resolution will simply cancel online subscription and buy paper even if I lose ALL my bookmarks. Such a shame. Just cancelled subscription

Not working

not dave just bob on

United Kingdom

Since the app was upgraded it is not possible to look at the magazines even though the direct debit has been taken. Deleting and reinstalling does not work even though you can log in. The app does not recognise existing subscribers.

Unreadable

Phil Hodders on

United Kingdom

Really need an app to view on a pc. The mag is great but unreadable on a phone.

See the detail without a magnifying glass!

AAWh on

United Kingdom

Fantastic value… See the detail without a magnifying glass! Model Rail is simply the best magazine out there for premier layouts, detailed and independent reviews of models and tools and Chris Nevard’s photos and scratch built modelling is stunning. If you are looking for inspiration… look no further!
