arabiandisco said: Here's a thought - get up off your backside and volunteer. Well done arabiandisco! People need to stop moaning about coaches and wagons rotting away on preserved railway sidings, and do something about it! Its easy enough to say why are railways allowing stock to rot away, but unl...

Hi Folks,
I recently downloaded BVE4 and it works great, until I come to exit the program, as every time it forces my computer to restart, which is highly annoying!
Can anyone help as to why this is happening, and how to stop it?
Thanks,
Mike.

Hi Dinmore. The line offically reopened to passengers last weekend. With new stations at Llantwit Major and Rhoose (For the airport) The bay at Bridgend was also lengthened and upgraded to passenger use. It was only really used for storage of tamping machines. The normal motive power for passenger t...

It is now not only a freight only line, it is now re-opened to passengers

I noticed a searchlight signal in 1288gaje top photo of the Anglia DBSO. Anyone else got photos of searchlight signals?

For an action reply of these unfortunate events, keep an eye on the Vale of Glamorgan Railway in Barry.
They are virtually council funded, just wait until the council get bored of throwing money at them. Then they will see what running a preserved railway is all about!
Mike.

At least they are going to be built by a decent builder! Having travelled on Japanese trains, they are without a doubt the best ever! Hitachi will show other builders a thing or two.
I guess that when they come over though, our British maintainers will . them up!

I don't think it was any of the things you mentioned, track machines have a very squeaky horn, or siren, and it was nothing like a two-tone using only one tone.

It was unlike anything I have heard in the UK before, blow the horn on the Dash 9 on MSTS and that is what I heard.

Hi Folks, Probably going mad or something, but I live 200yds from the South Wales Main Line nr Bridgend, and a couple of times over the past few nights, about 2200, I swear I can hear an American train horn! I just heard the horn again now at 2100, and went to the window overlooking the railway, but...

Having just received my copy of the PS2 Densha De Go Professional 2 from Play-Asia, I was wondering if anyone else has this game? I have worked out much of the menus, I have all the PSX Densha games, which helps! But a few are still a mystery, I know how to turn vibration on and off, but theres a th...

Getting a HST home from Reading to Bridgend after a day in the Cattle pens (Rail training centre) Get to Bristol P Way, train not going for ages! Get out and see front power car dead and a couple of railwaymen around it. After an hour wait.. Wot they do? Use the rear power car to push the train all ...

Excellent news! I have walked the viaduct above Tryweryn, and is a spectacular view towards Trawsfynydd. It'll be nice to stop at Capel Celyn, and reflect on the time before the Liverpool water board :fist: flooded the valley, and forced people to leave their homes. I'll look forward to the release ...

Coming soon to a steelworks near you! I'm making a model of one of Port Talbot steelworks Brush-Bagnall locomotives. They are of a rather interesting design, and look superb. Here is a photo of the real thing to show you what they look like... 8) 8) http://www.gwili-railway.co.uk/906locopylon.jpg Ph...
