Just a thought but would it be possible to have a section dedicated to model buses? this would keep the modeling threads seperate to real bus threads as i have noticed more and more threads on the subject

Sounds a good idea to me, there seems to be demand for it, but only fair to see what the others say  |

Certainly something to think about, though the amount of threads/demand doesn't seem to justify its own section just yet. However if things do improve on this front, then I will be more than happy to create a new section, dedicated to Model Buses.
Thanks,
Staff at South Yorkshire Transport

Can I ask, how can you work out the demand is not there if we've had no trail or anything. I know it would interest me, as well as many others. This may even attract other members to the forum.

...thanks Andy for bringing this up !!!.... i would obviously appreciate a section dedicated to models !!!!, as i was wondering if to send any more pics in , in case there was insufficient interest. However , since Andy uploaded the pics of my large scale 1/24 efforts! a couple of months ago, i have been busily (unknown to most members on here) giving advice , hints, tips ,ect and helping wherever i can , to people who have contacted me and asked for help and advice for their projects - which i have freely given - to encourage , and help people into this brilliant hobby ! I personally have a collection of around 50 local bus examples in my collection - which are slowly growing! - and would be willing to post on a dedicated section -and even oversee if needed! - if there is enough demand from members . I think ,it would be great , so long as the content is predominently from the local scene ,which we can all relate to, and have an interest in !! Otherwise i will help other members ,if i can ,if they PM me , and i will hopefully be exhibiting my models at the Sept 19th O/D at the Joint Aldwalke/ Meadowhall Rally day . So it looks like it is down to you , the members !!!...... Please vote, or add to this post if you would like a Model Bus Section !!!! |

Yes. Why not? I do think it should not just be about model buses, and named "Models" though.
