The LNER Encyclopedia

There have recently been two requests for new topics: Photographs, and Tours.

My main concern is: Will there be enough traffic? There is no point in creating a new topic unless there are a lot of posts to it. The "LNER People" topic is an example of a relatively quiet topic. For long enough it was too quiet but it has improved in the past year.

I think the Photos topic should be "LNER Photographs" and be listed under LNER - ie. only LNER (+constituents and later users of routes/locos) will be on topic.

The Tours topic would be listed under General and cover all Tours. Will this have enough traffic? The site is intended for LNER subjects, so there has been interest of tours hauled by LNER locos, but is there enough interest for other tours? Making it LNER-only might be one option - this would suit people like Mark (silver fox), but will we get spill-over with posts and requests about other tours?

Isn't tour info already covered in depth by other sites such as Steam Info?
Is it worth duplicating?

This is what I'm thinking - the site isn't about tours, but information about LNER-themed tours might be of interest?

The "LNER Photographs" topic has now been created.

I've just moved a lot (all?) of Malcolm's recent threads in to the new topic.
