Welcome to steam4me!

Progress Report

Most/all work on returning content has been focussed on returning MSTS tutorial and model content. Seventy tutorials have now been returned to the tutorials section of the site. All but two routes have been returned. The visitor count was close to 18,000 this month and over 70G of bandwidth was consumed in the month of March alone.

I believe that the steam4me site is already better/faster than before and the demise of Railpage has enabled the bringing together of two other fine modellers onto the one site:

  1. Brian Bere-Streeter has taken some space on the site and will be hosting his own fine models there: visit http://shortnorth.steam4me.net to see his progress.
     
  2. The fastidiously crafted models of James Brook are coming back as well: James is forwarding his models to me and I'm honoured and proud to host his fine models for him on this site. You'll be able to find his models in each of the rolling stock categories as they return.

{2,807,000}.

Thanks to Robert Hadley who's sent me this link, the chorus of which could well become the theme for this site!

The steam4me site is back, now on its own server and under my complete control (as long as I pay the web hosting bills!)- it'll take a few weeks to get everything uploaded, so feel free to email me with any items you need and I'll prioritise their return.
Otherwise, I'll upload as I see fit.

Most/all links broken. I'm reorganising as I upload.

  • Quite a few years ago, I scanned the complete "VR Telegraph Codes Book" and placed them on railpage. When the railpage servers were "AMEX"ed (look it up), that page vanished along with everything else. Fortunately, I've found the images on a backup CD and the Code book will now reside here on my own site.
