Just want to say happy holidays to you all and thanks for a great year with a classic game I love, hope next year is even better with new updates, grfs and patches. :D

I'm going to be braving the winter snow in the morning to head down Kent (England) for Christmas, just hoping I don't get stuck somewhere along the way, so far it's small deleys but still running. If you dont hear from me send out the dog sledge :lol:

It's a nice simple trip:

Nottingham to London St Pancres (East Midland Trains) then change platform and on the Southeastern highspeed. So glad they made this service it's cut my journey time down by over an hour and no London Underground.

Once again Have a good one this year to all :)

A merry Christmas and a lovely new year to you as well. It's always fun to read about people who love these games being developed here. The OpenTTD and TTDPatch guys are doing amazing work all the time. 2010 was the year of OpenTTD 1.0.0, merely 16 years after the original Transport Tycoon release :wink:

Thx. Just got home to kent, the journey started off well with good service on Eastmidland Trains we even arrived in St Pancres 10 mins early.At this point I noticed a earlier connection leaving for home, so i ran for it to see it just pull away as i got there. Then a couple of mins after that had gone, all hell broke out. Complete signal failure just outside the station, all trains stopped till further notice :cry:

After an hour and 1 cup of hot chocolate that nearly cost a weeks wages and me thinking about crossing london and trying a slow service they fixed the problem but with heavy deleys :? When my train finally left there was so many people on it that every direction i turned my face there was an armpit. Thank god it was only a 30min travel. :?
