John Kalaitzis –
This is a great addition to the “Times” stable with interesting, well thought out and researched articles. The look and feel is also a cut above the rest with a great use of design and and an eye-catching typeface. Looking forward to the second issue
grahambreeze –
A good first issue with some fine photographs, such as of the Fell Locomotive. I applaud the long form of article although I did think the typeface was unnecessarily large leaving a lot of “white space” and suggesting as shortage of material.
Rodger Key –
enjoyable reading
Andy Johnston –
An excellent start to the series. A variety of interesting articles provides something for everyone.
