This forum is a unique environment which London Underground/Transport for London staff, mainline railway staff, railway enthusiasts, writers, journalists and even politicians visit. The manner in which the staff administrate and moderate the forum is intended to ensure that our community builds and continues to be respectful, fair, relevant and interesting for everyone.
On many occasions questions are posed or topics are discussed with regards London Transport Museum and its rolling stock/preserved items. To this end, a senior member of London Transport Museum staff has joined the forum, signing up with the account number 35. This individual is firstly and foremost a standard forum member, just like the rest of us, however this person also has the authority to engage the forum to respond to questions or to post in threads in their official capacity as a representative of London Transport Museum. So that members can appreciate when this representative is engaging the forum wearing their official London Transport Museum hat, they will type in Magenta branding colour of the Museum on these occasions.
This person is only able to comment on London Transport Museum matters and not Transport for London issues.
The Administrators know who this senior person is. On behalf of the forum membership, we would like to welcome them into our community.
Rather than PM'ing this account direct, all topics regarding preservation / restoration / conservation and the activities of London Transport Museum should continue to be posted on the open forum as usual, the only difference is that now some threads may have an official London Transport Museum response.
Also be aware that this person has an official professional capacity and responsibility, with demands upon their time. Consequently there may be occasions when there is a delay in any response to posts, which some might view as frustrating, but you will get one.
