Model Trains Magazine

 

By April of 1982 the Airfix logo on the front cover was a "new" oval design.

By this issue, the Editor had become Fred Game

 

 

 

The original Airfix logo returned to the front cover in May of 1982 and continued to the end of publication in December of that year.

 

How long the Magazine continued is a big question. It was available until August and September 1983, issued as Model Trains. No Airfix logo but Airfix's owners at the time (Palitoy) still shown as proprietors on pages 221 and 261 respectively.
