Dosent this go on from 14/08 til 21/08?
Hi, James ... I'm posting to say "welcome to the Coffee Shop" with your first post here - I know that you've been a member for quite a while, and that it can take quite a bit of courage to make a first post - especially amongst well established and boisterous other members. I hope you're going to post further and help us move other threads forward.
A note to regular posters, confirming Inspector Blakey's post, and explaining a little further.
As a board standard, we do not allow multiple signups under different names from the same individual. Reasons include (but are not limited to) the fact that it would confuse and mislead other members. And this is something we're fairly strong on, too. But having said that, it's not exactly easy to be sure about new sign up requests and at times the odd one may creep under the radar, sometimes to raise suspicions later and be found out.
Should
you as a member think that two accounts may be being run by the same person, please mention your suspicions to a moderator or administrator. In many cases, you'll find that we come back to confirm to you that we're fairly sure we have separate people with similar names / posting habits ... but please ask, never the less - you are our eyes and ears, and it may well be that on occasions you're providing a direction for us to look at that we hadn't considered, or helping us to resolve a possible double identity.
The name "James" or "Jim" is quite widely used in this part of the
UK▸ . And it's not uncommon for a certain genre of member to add in their favourite loco or stock number to their "handle". So there's only a small co-incidence that we have apparently unrelated James158 and 159James here. I'll never say "never" ... but I would be gobsmacked if they turn out to be the same person.
By the way - I'm the "Graham Ellis" from Melksham. I would welcome the
BBC» producer "Graham Ellis", Graham Ellis the rocket scientist from Brighton (who would have just cause to grumble about the number of
FGW▸ short trains and trains not running the full route on services to that place). The Graham Ellis from the University of Galway, a distinguished academic, would also be welcome although I suspect he has other things to do than post about train services in an area with which I don't think he has any connection. And there are 000s more of us!
