that is the issue, I am surprised to see the word labelled
affectionate, to judge by the usages I have seen frequently in the media
it is perjorative.
and yes, I do not disagree with the core content of the review, I value
them, but exactly the same point could have been made with the simple
accurate term <aimed at the railway enthusiast, particularly those
fascinated by different rail types..........>
honest reviewing does try to be dispassionate.
