Hello, just a quick post to let you all know about CommuterJunction.com
a new online national community for all of us commuters.  The main aim
of the site is to provide a forum where you and fellow commuters can
share experiences, provide heads-up information and have a jolly good
chat.  I believe rail providers give all the information they can
regarding delays and the like, but this site can give them a helping
hand with info from the people on the street in realtime.

Hope to see you soon at CommuterJunction.com

Hi, good luck with that project.

We had a careful look at widening our "Save the Train" website with its current service / future service areas where many users read and some post across a wider area.  In the end we decided that covering the country as a whole was just too much for our team and that such a project would be still born .... and you need a motivated team, and (country wide) probably good sponsorship or some way of raising money from your users to meet your server and time costs.   And in the end we spawned off http://www.firstgreatwestern.info/coffeeshop - the First Great Western Coffee shop, on the basis that all the companies / player are the same across the region and there's so much of an intermeshing of the trains in any case.

Good luck with your new website. As Graham says, we dont have the manpower to cover absolutely everthing in minute detail. However, we do provide a comprehensive news service in our Greater Britain section, and updates from you on your progress would be most welcome.
