    I went to do some research on a loco and when I choose the parameters for the search, it takes me to a "404 page not found", no matter what the search is for(diesel, steam, brass,etc.). Has it moved? If so, does anyone have a live link to it? The rolling stock and building lists are still there.

    Worked earlier today. Many a time I have had their server hang sending me the page; give it time, bet you it'll clear up :)

    The problem seems to be limited to the loco search section. Im sure it will be fixed shortly.

    The dreaded 404 disease, often received and rarely fixed quickly. Thank you for doing so.

    Spookshow, your list has been very valuable in my N scale projects and purchases.

    Spookshow, I don't make a purchase without checking your database first. It's a treasure of information. Thanks for all the hard work.

    I can't count the number of times I've seen the site referenced, or been there myself.

    If I had a stock broker as reliable as Spookshow ... I could afford more N scale engines.

    Just kidding. Even if I had a reliable stock broker, I wouldn't have the money to invest. :)

    Thanks for all the kind words, guys - much appreciated. I guess I should screw up more often if threads like this are the result :)

    Cheers,

    P.S. Apologies for the boring "old school" smiley, but I just find this forum's standard SMILEY'S a bit too oversized for my tastes.

    Spook, just bought a spectrum loco yesterday based on your reviews. I have taken the leap a few times and you're always spot-on. Have you thought of adding any quick-fix info to certain loco pages? Like beardenizing etc.?
