Hi Dean,

Just had a flying visit to your new site, my initial impression is that its looking good.

I would change the NRM logo (old fashioned green train) to the ‘modern’ loco still used on the home site :P

Nice website and some great pictures there, your football stadium still does it for me every time. So will you be posting updates on the new website rather than on NRM forums now ?

Nice website - I didn't know NRM did hosting. I like the cricket pitch, disused station and the pannier tank on the low loader :D

Well mate, nice to see some updates! The website is great! i will have to add it to my favourites :)

The Derelict Station is a brilliant idea, i dont think anyone else has done anything similar! I see you got the HST parked there as well on the old station - am i right in saying that the disused station is now being used as some sort of Coach stabling points? or is it you dont really care :lol:

Keep it up Dean, and post more updates in the future :wink:

Cheers

This is the only derelict station that I have seen on this forum. Very good indeed. May I suggest that you put some sheep on the platform as the desolation, loneliness and silence will seem to be too similar to the the BRFC footie ground!! :D :D See you in league 1 next year!

Hi guys thanks for the comments,here's a little update for you and some answers to your questions.

Adam. Your right the old derilect station is being used a stabling point, I decided to put the hst there because it deosn't work very good and i prefer to run other loco's.

Darren. There's a pic of the building site below, it's lnly basicly a couple of diggers at the mo and some piles of sand and stone. I might add some steel work as if a structure was being erected.

Sishades. You'll probably be in league 1 next year and the gas will probably be back in league 2 so don't worry. one bit of good news the new staduim got the final go-ahead today and work will start at the end of the season. p.s if you've heard about bristol city wanting to rebuild there stadium, it will give me great pleasure to burn down there old one.

Anyway here's some pics there not very good because I relised after i took them i had the camera set to close up shots,

Hi darren, The floor is just 2 different types of sand to make it look like mud and the piles of stone and sand are actually from Lidl's. They were selling packs of the stuff before christmas for 99p and you get quite a bit it them. I think they were selling them as plant decorations or something. oh and the construction veichles are from toys'r'us
