I often have NEB sitting in the background on my phone or laptop, I was wondering if there is the chance of a plugin that allows users to see notifications via an API that google chrome provides or whatever. Much like when enabled in facebook on google chrome, it will show a box in the bottom right corner of the screen like so (just googled picture):

My idea is that whenever somebody quotes you, posts in a selected thread or PMs you, it alerts you and describes as above. I believe the forums are currently quite static, and this would really bring it alive. I wouldn't have to periodically refresh my browser to see if something had happened or not - and believe me - I do it more than periodically during threads with an active conversation!
Thanks, Jamie.

I had a thought about a section, similar to fleet lists - but for routes. It would show new & old, along with the depot that runs it with the allocation. Basically providing information and changelog to make that 40-something page long thread about allocated rare workings redundant, too.

This would not only help new enthusiasts, but also provide a background to service operation.

Wondering if anyone has watched this.

It's a series about competing sightseeing bus companies in Belfast and across Northern Ireland.

Quite interesting little series.

Available on the iPlayer and catch up on Sky etc

I know Dan suggested I pm him with some illustrations of this, a while back, but I never did work out how to pm attachments.

So I'll leave these here. Basically, landscape is ridiculous, portrait involves too much sliding and scrolling and can't be resized, icons are mismatched (same on Firefox on my laptop) and members' info often takes up far more space than the actual post, which makes following a conversation quite difficult!

They 10 years old and any bus can break down doesn't matter what age it is, I would wait a few weeks in till you decide it's a common problem.
