In this paper, we compare the magnitude-redshift data for brightest cluster galaxies with cosmological models of general relativity, including non-zero cosmological constant. Our study is parallel to that by Peach (1970). We use the same data but an independent method, and obtain somewhat different results. We also consider possible effects of evolution.
