Bluebell Newsreel

July 22nd 2008

We'd like to thank all the Newsreel subscribers for joining our effort to raise some extra funds for the Bluebell. We were hoping to have at least 1,000 subscribers by now. Sadly the marketing and promotion seems to have fallen on deaf ears as we have not achieved our target subscription level. So far we have invested over £70,000 in the Newsreel service and DVD production yet only generated a tiny portion of this figure in sales. The Bluebell has benefited though, from sales of nearly 1,000 copies of our DVDs.

The good news is that we'll soon be making all the Newsreel content available free of charge. We'll keep you posted about this. The other good news is that we are happy to refund anyone who has subscribed in the last 4 months and we're offering complimentary copies of Bluebell Years DVD3 to anyone who subscribed before April 2008. Please use the Contact Us section and let us have your postal address.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you'd like to comment on the decision to make the Newsreel content available free of charge.

Kind regards

John Collins Director Rail TV Ltd
