Ladies & Gents,
You may have noticed that a number of S stock threads have recently been moved to the SSR group board.
The reason for this action is that we've recently seen an explosion of new S stock threads created within the Metropolitan line board, despite the S stock being intended for all of of the SSR (Sub Surface Railway). Granted the current deliveries of S8's are Metropolitan line specific; however in the fullness of time we'll no doubt go through all the same subjects again once the S stock comes to the Circle, Hammersmith & City and District lines - it therefore makes sense that the vast majority of S stock discussion should be taking place within the SSR group board.
Furthermore, we have seen a number of threads created separately each time a new S stock is delivered or an A stock is withdrawn. Not only is this causing a lot of crossed information over several threads, it's making a general mess of the Metropolitan line area and it's getting harder and more confusing trying to follow what's new and what's gone.
To counter this and make life easier for all, two new posts have been created - one for A stock withdrawals and posted in the Metropolitan line area, and another for S stock deliveries, posted in the SSR group area. Both posts will require some initial information to be added, after which they will be kept updated as appropriate.
There will also be one additional thread created in the Metropolitan line area for the posting of all images and videos relating to the withdrawal of A stock. All other threads will be locked thus creating a new starting point.
We hope these actions will lead to a more sensible approach to posting in these areas and that finding the relevant information will be somewhat easier.
