Video Plus lacking for Sept
Posted by slammin on Saturday, September 26, 2015 8:50 AM

Am I the only Video Plus subscriber disappointed in Septembers content? Aside from Ask MRVP and the first edition of the new Rehab My Railroad season, there was little new content for Sept. Cody's Office and Workshop still August left overs, no new Roundhouse, a trailer for a new Drews Trackside adventures. In the not too distant past, we got a new Cody's Office every week, and it was FREE!

I would imagine it has something to do with the MR staff being at the convention and NTS.   They took a bunch of video and their editing staff probablu finished up just in time to start working on October's content.  It will likely return to normal next month.  I seem to remember this being the case last year after the NTS.

Seeing content featuring Malcom Furlow over the last 6-8 weeks is worth the price of admission by itself.  Maybe we could start a Kickstarter campaign to get him to build another layout?

There's also the kitbashing series on the Tar Branch. I think following the NMRA Convention every year there's a slight downtick in videos for a month or so. Cody does a two-part visit to the National Train Show, so maybe that's in place of Cody's Office this month.

You are spot on, BMMECNYC! Indeed, when Cody's Office hits the road for major (multiple day) events such as NMRA conventions and National Train Shows, we offer up breaking new product coverage rather than hosting the show from Kalmbach HQ. Even better, you essentially got TWO shows (NTS P1 and P2). Not to worry, we'll be sure to deliver the content promised (and more -- the Winston-Salem project yielded three, 15+ min. videos) in the September 2015 MR Insider video, so stay tuned to the MRVP website! There are still two days left in the month, right? --Kent Johnson, MRVP assoc. producer
