Site News Latest additions and changes to LTSV Wagons |
|
7th November 2008 With thanks to Martyn for pointing them out, some gaps in the private-owner numbering series have now been filled. |
|
20th October 2008 In connection with forthcoming models in OO gauge (by Bachmann) and Trainz Railway Simulator (by me), I have added a profile of the PIA/KPA Tiphook Hoppers and HQA/JJA Autoballasters as well as datasheets for the HQA and JJA codes. |
|
19th October 2008 Thanks to everyone who supplied feedback and comments. Thankfully there seem to have been no major errors in the pages put up so far, although I have found some spelling mistakes! I will try to provide at least one update a month, the first one being a revision to the RIV numbers page, adding some recent deliveries and highlighting the number ranges that are still in use. With all new-build wagons expected to take RIV numbers, this page may see quite a lot of editing! |
|
1st October 2008 Launch date! Do let me know if you spot any errors. |
|
12th September 2008 Still busy with other projects. However, I have updated a couple of profiles with extra photos. I am now aiming for a 1st October launch, this being a traditional date for such things here! The number of pages requiring major work is now down to 4. |
|
26th June 2008 Been busy with Trainz work recently, but a couple more profiles have been completed, leaving just 7 from the initial set of 53 to be done. A couple of other pages still require some work but the prospect of a launch during the summer does not seem too unrealistic. |
|
1st June 2008 I have decided to add Acrobat PDF versions of all of the profiles on this site, so that content can be saved off-line. The first 28 have been done already and there is a link at the bottom of each profile page, as well as a full listing on the downloads index page. The remaining profiles will be added later. |
|
29th May 2008 The format of the TOPS code datasheets has been finalised and the first examples added. These sheets will bring together all the known information on numbering, AARKNDs and design codes for each TOPS code grouping. An index page had also been addded. |
|
17th May 2008 Another five profiles have been finished this week, bringing the total to 38 (although some of the earliest ones need reviewing and more detail adding). |
|
22nd April 2008 After a bit of a spurt on the profiles, I have since gone back to the reference pages and added more information and some introductory texts. There is quite a temptation to launch the site as it is, with a few 'under construction' notices on the affected pages. We shall see.... |
|
12th April 2008 I have been making good progress with the intial set of 50 (now increased to 53) type profiles planned. Two more completed today are for the MTA box wagon rebuilds, and the PX030 Sheerness Steel bogie steel/scrap wagons. The newer profiles include a lot more detailed information on aspects such as design codes and it is planned to upgrade the earlier articles to the same level at a later date. |
|
11th April 2008 The wagon numbers pages have been updated with recent deliveries. |
|
10th April 2008 The profile of the Dolphin and Sturgeon bogie departmental wagons has been finished. |
|
8th April 2008 The profile for the Mendip Rail JNA box wagons has been completed. |
|
31st March 2008 The profile for the Catfish and Dogfish ballast hoppers has been added. |
|
29th March 2008 Continuing with the intermodal theme, profiles have been added for the FSA/FTA and FLA 'lowliner' container wagons operated by Freightliner. |
|
20th March 2008 As from today I will be adding site updates as if the site was live. At least that way I can see what I have been up to! A profile has been added for the modern FEA container wagon. |
|
21st January 2008 This website is approaching its second birthday and has yet to actually venture onto the internet! Quite an achievement. |
