What are people generally logging their traction sighting on these days?
Which publication or software ? what do they find is the most up to date?

A simple Excel file
I now only log actual travel on Class 390 units, by date and headcode

I used excel as well. This has now been lost with my computer, but otherwise it worked very well.

One of the golden rules; backup
I backup my computer every week onto a DVD-RW
I also backup my PDA on to a flash drive
The advantage with the flash drive is that if I forget my PDA then I can use my laptop!

I do back up. Unfortunately, rail miles is not as important as a lot of other stuff on my computer, and to save space I decided that in the unlikely event of loss, I can sacrifice them.
