Allt om Hobby is a Swedish Hobby magazine established in 1966 which covers every aspects of modelling hobbies including scale-, radio controlled- and railway modelling. Although being Swedish it's probably the biggest Hobby Magazine not only in Scandinavia but in the Nordic Countries as well with 6 annual issues, each with a print run of 4000 magazines + 3000 digital readers. This magazine is available at selected Newsagents in Norway.
Late this summer the editor of Allt om Hobby was visiting Heine, who is a member in out Model Railway Club, to write an article about his Garden Railway. So several members from our Model Railway Club was very early up a Monday morning in September to run trains and provide some traffic on Heines lovely garden railway for this article. Now the latest issue of Allt om Hobby is published, and in this issue is also a 8 page long article about Heine's Garden Railway on print:
I was very delighted and pleased to see that almost a page was used to cover my British and German Military Garden Trains:
The Main Character in this article, and well deserved too, was naturally Heine who has constructed this amazing garden railway, and keeps inviting us over for running sessions and are actively contributing to our active garden railway society. Heine continually keeps posting new photos from running sessions in his garden (and others alike) on his and on our MRC's Facebook groups. Both are 'open' groups and you are welcome to visit and follow them if you like continously updated photos of Garden Railways. I know he's planning a running-session this Sunday, but I won't be able to join due to my work.
Despite the cover-photo and some of the other images in the article are suggesting otherwise, there is absolutely no snow here so far this winter (!). Actually it's mild and been raining more or less constantly since late November. So it's very uncertain at the moment when and if we'll be able to run trains in the snow this winter. -I'm dreaming of a White Christmas ❄️
