Good news and not so good on the rail front

摘要

The'a to z' of titled trains souvenir issue received a wonderful response from readcrs - so much so that we would have been justified in calling it an 'Encyclopaedia of Tided Trains'. We might even do that once we reach the letter Z and have updated it with your comments. Some of your observations are printed on page 28 but the big relief for us is that there aren't many of them. There's always a risk when launching the results of primary research into the big wide world that it will be riddled with errors, but the good news is that no major or important named train appears to have been omitted so far. Our publishers have told us that it might be possible to publish the whole survey in book form once it's complete - and even if it doesn't prove possible to do that, we intend to post the complete register on our website for the benefit of future researchers and historians.
