### 5/5 — Love it

*2019-03-19*

If you like the magazine and know how to download the app you’ll appreciate being able to get the most current edition or past editions. It’s great.  I already have a subscription to the magazine (digital format only) but whenever I fly I always go on and download an issue or special issue I haven’t read yet.  Nothing like reading about trains while flying. App works great. 🚂💨💨💨💨💨💨💨👍

### 5/5 — Classic Trains

*2016-09-19*

Love magazine that calls up the older days of railroad

### 1/5 — Crash!

*2016-03-10*

The current version of this app is very disappointing. It crashes constantly if you try to go back to the library while an issue is downloading very slowly.

### 5/5 — One Favourite Publication

*2015-11-30*

I would like the sister publications to be like this one. Get the ones I want, and keep them on my iPad. No paper cluttering the house.
