This may already have been covered. If so I apologize for the duplication.
Does anyone know what is happening with Railfan and Railroad Magazine? I see it almost religiously on the newsstands on the first of the month. However it is now the 9th of the month and not only doesn’t it seem to be out, but their website still lists the March issue as the current one.
In this day and age businesses are disappearing regularly. I hope this is not the case this time. I enjoy the magazine and hope Carstens is doing well.
I subscribe to Railfan & Railroad, and I usually receive it 6 weeks before the cover date; that is I received the March, 2009 issue on the 15th to the 18th of January, 2009. So far I have not received my April, 2009 issue so I sent an e mail to Railfan & Railroad last week which they didn’t answer. I called them today - March 9, 2009 - and I reported not receiving my April issue of the magazine. Somebody in Customer Service who answered the phone told me they were having some production problems, but she didn’t elaborate, nor did she give me any idea when the April, 2009 issue will be published.
Having encountered a slight delay, the April issue should be showing up any day now. I’m told the May and possibly June issues will be coming out a bit earlier than normal.
