I've uploaded to train sheets to my hosting provided a link can be found in the last post http://www.railforums.co.uk/showthread.php?p=346477#post346477

This is so you can keep a record of the trains you've spotted on your computer.

I would love if you could suggest some information to add to it. At the moment it's nothing special but I never know what to put on these :P

What about a TOC/FOC category, or names, or extra details eg. running light engine.

I used to do one on paper and computer, and also ticked off things when I saw them on fleet lists I printed off from the junction. I don't keep track of numbers anymore since it takes time to keep up to date with it lol, and I don't really have time any more.

Explain running light engine if you could, thank you.

TOC = Train Operating Company is an idea I've never thought about but now you mention it, it's a good idea to add!

Edit - Bookmarked thejunction, thanks for the link, didn't spot it first time over

Looks pretty good that, using a speadsheet to store that kind of data is a great idea

I keep one for my loco sightings, ever since I started it I've never looked back!

I did have another one but didn't have dates, which I found to be a major flaw.. so I added dates and plan to restart

Also rww100 I've added a 'Train Operating Company' section

[also, feel free to use this yourself if you don't already have one]

A light engine is a loco say for instance a 37 running just on its own, with no carriages on the back or anything, like this

I've learnt something!

That's a good idea aswell,
thank you thank you,

i'll put it so you can have yes or no on the spreadsheet, on the excel version I can put a drop down box

 

[JustinStacey.x]

The spreadsheet looks good too, by the way.

Anymore suggestions are welcome.

lol, I already have one, but gave up on it . I did my one as a database though so that I could print out reports etc

JustinStacey.x beat me to answering your question reagarding light engine

Yeah I know you don't use one anymore :P
it was aimed at the global forum, I'll upload the .xml version of it and make one in access for people too, put my geekyness to some use.

And yes! Too slow in the question answering section there.

 

[rww100]

Sorry, thought I hadn't mentioned it

I didn't see it at first, I had to read the post a couple times, considering it was around 1 - 2am :P
