Hi,
This is my first post to the Forum, I have been reading the various trips you guys have been making with interest. I have been interested in Railways for over 30 years formally a resident of Devon, now residing in Hampshire. So fond memories of the Summer Saturday extra during the late 80s to that neck of the woods.
More recent times I have been concentrating on the Railways of Continental Europe, Mainly Germany, as quite frankly from a spotting point of view the influx of units replacing LHS put me off..
I used to log my hauls for the UK, but not being able to find them anymore, this June I decided I would start again for the UK. However I still have all my Euro Travels.
As I wish to reduce the amount files, I want to bring them all together in one file, but as most of you (possibly) know Europe operate in KM's not Mile and definitely not in Miles&Chains.
So my question to you guys would be is there a formula I can use to convert KM's into M&C's in a spreadsheet.
I know 1Mile = roughly into 1.609km so working out the miles is not to difficult but when you get a figure like say 69,8kms how would that equate into M&C's?
Any help would be gratefully received.
I intend to start posting my travels from June this year (When I started the UK again) I may post a few oldies from my jaunts to the Continent once I have a formula setup.
Many Thanks
