    • Nothing you have done. To get the speed increase of the website we have had to rebuild LocoStop from the ground up which has meant that ‘friends’ have now become connections and those who use connections will need to become reconnected.

      We are working on some documentation…

      • I noticed on 44871 a fancy yellow tagged air hose! Is that braked by default? Air? I would literally rip the vacuum pipe from its dolly for protection from a heavy train! Sit there smoking a fag all day! Or a nice panama! Nobody going anywhere! But now i see no guards van! Where’s train protection gone? Your trains derailed! Blocking the…

            Pennine Twite, Atlantic wild Canary, or Serin? Not a clue! Not even if male or Female? If Male and lays an egg! Then very rare species indeed!

          • Dont know if any Locostop members travelling on the Royal Duchy to Par this morning? (44871 goes through Dawlish on YouTube Cams 11-45ish) Its just started to rain down here! Not too heavy, But forecast says to get worse as day goes on!
