A special mention must be made for our founder Glyn Murray, who two decades ago saw the Stream Dreams forum was closing and decided that a community for railway enthusiasts, with a...

To further complicate matters, the forum 'contact us' is also not working correctly so we are not receiving these messages. The social media accounts relating to National Preservation were not included when the forum was sold to the present owners, meaning we are not receiving those either.

It has become increasingly obvious to the moderation team that the New General Chat section of the forum is the source of probably 90+% of all the disagreements, insults, reports etc that are generated by this entire forum.

We are becoming ever more unhappy that our time spent on the forum is taken up by the administration of this section with all the complaints and reports.

This needs to stop.

There is a lot of support in the team behind doing away with New General...

Conrad Windham is now the full owner of the forum, I am still an Administrator.

The sale was for personal reasons.
I have no control of the advertising, funding, hosting or any of the big ticket items, however I still have a voice, and I will do my damnedest to keep this forum on the straight and narrow.

After 13 years of creating the forum, and owning it, I felt I needed to spend time on my family...

Thanks for your patience
