This is very true indeed and I certainly don't intend to hold it as a personal vendetta against any preservation society. But, lets just say, some railways intentionally seem to take better care of their stock than others.

To be fair, BOTH of you hold a very valid point.
I admit, spelling was never really one of my strongest points while studying literature (how I received an A*, I'll never know!). And, while there's more important things to worry about, one has to maintain appearances if they are to be taken seriously in this world. All I can really say is thank you for letting me know.
At the same time, you're right; it could have easily been Kingdo<!

I did consider this when I planned the concept. However, I'm not the greatest stills photographer in the world and although I try to cover all aspects, my target audience was for the casual visitor than the hardcore linesider.
That said, I will bear it in mind for future reviews wherever I can.

You're right again, and thanks for your feedback

Thanks for the warm welcome everybody. I must say, I already feel more welcome here than on other forums I've joined recently. I shan't name any names for obvious reasons, but some seem to feel strongly that what I'm doing should only be tackled by those who are either employed in the Heritage Railway Sector, or have previous background with Professional Market Research; in other words, some seem to feel that I'm wasting my time.
And, for those who are interested, I don't just intend to stop at reviewing railways. I am also in the process of setting up some of my films produced at University (also related to steam engines), which will also be trademarked under E-G Media. As well as a series of short documentaries looking at various locomotive designs (which is currently in the works).


Incidentally, whereabouts on this forum would you recommend I mention my work? I feel it necessary to ensure that I don't end up clogging this thread up with every update I make.
