*unless you meant Metro, interchanges & bus stations

I think he means Nexus property...
Unless Tyne and Wear have Seceeded from the rest of the country with Nexus grabbing power and turning Newcastle into a Pyongyang style Peoples Republic

I've been looking at the albums on my Flickr account and I have noticed that I have now gone onto a second page due to the number of albums I have created. I am a little annoyed with this as I can't see where many people will bother viewing another page of albums. With my albums I have a individual album for every operator which proves popular for ANE, GNE, SNE and some of the larger independents like Scarlet Band and Weardale but I also have many albums (mostly independents) where I will have little or no views on the albums. I also like to create an album for when I have trips further afield to places such as Blackpool, Carlisle and Scarborough, also I create albums for each bus rally I've been to and one reason I like to do this is so when I do these trips I can copy and paste the link to the album and post it in the Flickr accounts thread so NEB members can see the photos and people looking at my albums can view the photos from that trip out from looking at my albums.
A problem I'm having is it's starting to look a bit messy now especially since I have started to upload train photos as well, so I would like some feedback as to what you think I should do with the albums?
Also I am interested to know if there is anything you'd like to see me upload that I don't do or do very little of now, example different locations, operators or if I should do more train photos etc. stuff like that.

Then the same for the trains.On mine it's ANE, GNE SNE as these three are the most popular albums and photos on my Flickr then A-Z of all other operators then I think it's events (rallies and launch events) then trips out then random mix albums examples: All 2014 Bus Photos, single deckers etc. Then the train photos are burried at the bottom.
I don't care if my albums continue onto another page, because a photo or the photostream is the first port of call for a viewer. I always look at a photo then see "Oooh, it's in an album, let's see what else he's took a photo of...", that's what I assume everyone else does...

First: 37136 / SN57HCU by Jimmi's Transport Photos, on Flickr

Edit: I see what you mean about the different names though. First borders, First Midlothian, Edinburgh etc.

(28 Sep 2015, 3:48 pm)Jimmi wrote Thanks. Was really unsure what to put it as, my knowledge of stuff outside the north east is pretty poor and when a few different names came up when I searched the reg just confused me.
