    General Unit "Argument"

    Many Midland Mainline staff would agree with you. I still haven't found anyone who likes them, EVERYONE i've asked has preferred the HST sets. Oh, wait, there was one person... an announcer based at St Pancras who lived in Cambridge so never used them... I must admit, having sampled both...

    Best Signature!

    Mine is 600x77px, I think that's just about the maximum allowed as it doesn't interfere with 800x600px screens.

    My current one is a bit rubbish.... didn't adjust the text for the border effect. Anyway. Sometimes I use Paint Shop Pro 9, sometimes I use Photoshop CS3.

    The First eurostar

    Depends how you look at it. I know I said before that HS2 is proposed to use the M1 corridor, but I may be wrong... i'm sure it was to be a new dedicated line. If it really was that fast then I suppose that the WCML would still generate revenue as it stops more... I believe the concept of HS2...

    The First eurostar

    The boards show 10mph IIRC, but I was told the TPWS would trip you at anything over 7.. (this is heading into station don't forget)

    The First eurostar
