See if it has appeared now? It should have done. I cannot tell from here as it has always allowed me as a moderator

I have done some of the things recommended, logo, title, extra boards.

Any more comments?

Before I saw it myself, I was told the red was the red used on 4177. I am still not sure which red it is

You can rename the forum in the Admin panel (can you tell I've used SMF myself before?).

As for adding a link to the menu bar, I think that may involve editing the template file, but I can't be 100% sure on that. I'm a co-admin on another forum that uses SMF, and we added extra links to our menu bar, I'll find out how we did it and let you know!

I currently have my setting.php on read only, this stops the bug that made the forum collapse twice before, but cannot remember how to alter it back so I can change the title

When I work out how to do those I will do both, good ideas. I do intend killing the guestbook off in the near future

How will this new emissions ruling be policed? What's the implications for any operator breaking these rules?

All bus entrances to the city will have cameras that can read registration plates. Any non-authorised vehicle such as a car or non-compliant bus will reveive a fixed penalty

Arriva / Re: Arriva X31

You get the impression that Arriva and NXWM have some sort of understanding regarding each other operating in Cannock and Walsall.

Is it not possible to get from Cannock to Walsall or Wolverhampton by bus and then change to X51 or the tram or train at Wolverhampton?

Most people from Cannock who go to Birmingham do use the train which is why London Midland have had to put 4 carriage trains on some services now, and even one of these is always full & standing. The X31's biggest problem is that a lot of off-peak passengers are Concessionary Card holders from within the West Midlands where Arriva only get pence for each one

The Archive / New Forum Features - February Issue
April 07, 2012, 07:35:15 PM
This Forum seems to have one down well since I added it. Has anybody any ideas for other features they would like to see added to this site? Any changes they would like to see made?
No promises they will happen, but I am open to suggestions on improvements

No it doesn't. Photo should be appearing on the main site anytime now
#19738
Or, much easier, as officially you cannot buy the Derbyshire ticket in Birmingham, just buy a cheap day return to Lincoln from the vending machine. £16.25 with a railcard and you don't have to worry about your train calling at Burton.
Birmingham-Lincoln tickets are valid via Doncaster and break of journey is permitted

The refurb & repaint of 4176 is now complete and I will hopefully gate a photo very soon. It is not like 4177 but I believe there might be a very slight change from standard livery

Because I also get free travel on local trains and it takes about 1/3 of the time to get from the City to AG on the train than it does on either the 31 or 37
