Request for assitance with Motive Power magazine
With the production of Motive Power magazine, I have setup a network of
state editors to cover all areas of Australia. I had a full editorial team
until last night. The south Australian editor, is about to move interstate,
the N.S.W editor is now tied up with family commitments, while the Victorian
editor has basically given up the hobby and is no longer interested. I
would ask to anyone out there in the ausrail newsgroup: if anyone is interested
in these above three positions.
Basically, you need access to a computer (you wouldn't
be reading this if you didn't), use a windows based word processing program,
able to sort out information from their state into a format suitable for
placement into this magazine, and have a PO box number or otherwise to
receive information from various contributors. Also you would have to meet
deadlines set down by the editor. You will need approximately one
week of free time ( nights) to compile your section(s) It is desirable
to have a good knowledge of the rail systems in your state, and have an
understanding of the various locomotive fleets associated within that state.
The above three positions are voluntary for a trial period of 3 issues
( 6 months). after this time a suitable agreement will be arranged
between all editorial staff. ( i.e.: the possibility of being paid for
these sections).
If you are sick and tired of the present Australian
railway magazines, here is your chance to be involved in an exciting project
and make a difference. Also we are desperately after photos or slides and
articles for our first issue which is due out at the end of July. They
can be of any topic relating to the Australian rail scene, with no specific
time period. Please include your name and basic details on the back of
all photos and slides please The deadline for this first issue will be
the 26th June. Any submissions should be addressed to : The
Editor, Motive Power Magazine, PO BOX 2262, Gosford, N.S.W 2250.
Any one interested in the above positions should
apply in writing to the above address, or email me at: festy@terrigal.net.au
Please I ask for only genuine inquiries only please. If you wish to talk
to me personally, please email me and I will send you my phone number.
Also if you wish to view the trial issue beforehand, please let me know
and I will send you out a copy.
Many thanks
