Yes I do have them minimized, the way I always have them, but unlike in this NEW layout I could always see them clearly, !
Forgot to mention I don't see the list of what members are on today or anything like that...
Have to ask why is Photo Galleries, Railway Related, Non Irish, Shops etc. so faint in the listing so as to almost render them insignificant....or maybe it's my iPad, no problems anywhere else.....
Steven I appreciate all your hard work but I don't like it, maybe it'll grow on me, don't think so, the option to change to " Old style " would be nice......

This is the first time I've been able to SEE the site in the past 3 days, last time I was able to access the site was over a week ago ! Don't understand the changes or reasons why !! As said if it's not broken!!
It would seem to me that old adage " if it's not broken, don't try to fix it " is very applicable here !! Well I can barley see just what I'm trying to type on here ! So very different from old site layout!
For whatever reason I don't understand but I have a better view on my "old iPad " as the appearance is more like the old site, even though the text is wrong & I have also noticed the " search box " is missing. !!!
Here's a chance to test your knowledge on trains, albeit USA's trains....best of luck

Noel, that's a totally mega video, lots of very interesting items on it, not to mention the loco 184 of course, but wagons as well, thanks for posting. Now tell me this if you can, is it my imagination or what but are the flying snails on the coaches 1st & 3rd when you get to 2.16 got the snails the wrong way around!!! Many thanks

It might be worth remembering that these " friends " or whomever may have a whole lot of issues going on in their lives now & may well have totally forgotten all about that book or whatever it was they borrowed!!! Of course I could be wrong !!!!just saying!
Hi all, here's a few wagons ( Hornby etc. ) that somebody might be interested in, not Irish btw, he shows lots of other stuff too boot.....!

Sad news, I'd like to wish that lad all the best for getting his collection back, in his description of what he said they did, it seems to me someone knew what boxes to take & what boxes to leave, " They checked al the boxes in the place and just took the trains, " time will tell.....hopefully he gets it back.

" They will be a bit long but should pass the duck test. The alternative is to just respray a pair of BR shark vans brown, but I do like the look of GWR toads resemblance to the GSWR van "
Hi Noel, & the best of luck with those plans, & as you may know I do like the duck test, after all it's called playing with trains.......
