RM CUP PRIZE DRAW
Every January, Railway Modeller invites its readers to decide who will receive the RM Cup for the best article published during the previous 12 months. All you have to do is list, in order of preference, your three favourite articles from last year’s 12 Railway Modeller issues. The author of the winning article will be presented with the RM Cup, and every reader who submits their choice is entered into the prize draw with over £1,000 worth of prizes.
