Updates :
Please send 2008 tour gen to this e-mail address which will be dealt with by Alan Sheppard (though please be aware Alan on occasions has paid-work pressures like I do so cannot always process the info quickly). Older gen can now be forwarded to any other e-mail address you have for me as I will deal with that when I've time. We always endeavour to get information uploaded as soon as we can but if there is a delay then please bear with us, we both have full-time jobs too! PLEASE also take note of the comments in the section below "Submitting Gen? Please read first...", especially if you are sending information for the first-time, or infrequently.

Struggling to find a preserved railway or preservation site? Try this listing (with thanks to Ian Evans for supplying).
Please e-mail me with any additions or corrections so this document can be kept current.

Contributor Links & credit

The owners of the following Websites in this section have very kindly contributed towards the running costs of this Website.

My personal thanks also goes to Bill Leatherland, Brian Whitaker, John Debens & John Simmonds who have all chosen to make a contribution as a way of acknowledging the important source of reference that SBJ has become and enjoyment that can be derived when reading through the many pages of information and memories.

It currently costs me around £100/year to bring you Six Bells Junction which, up to now, I have been paying out of my own pocket. The cost is for the domain name (sixbellsjunction.co.uk) plus the provision of Webspace and mail forwarding etc. Though I've never asked it before, donations towards the running costs would always be gratefully received. I am willing in return to consider allowing adverts (of a railway interest/nature only) to be placed for an agreed period in this area of the homepage and/or in a prominent area at the top of the links Page.
If you are interested then please contact me for further discussion.

Caption Contest

Caption Contest - some railway scenes deserving of a witty comment or two.

Important, please read if planning to send in gen/photographs:

Two requests;
1) No e-mails with very large attachments (files, photos etc) please without first clearing it with me - I keep getting my inbox overloaded by unannounced e-mails with loads of photos. If this continues I will consider setting a size limit above which e-mails are automatically bounced back to the sender. To those who follow the rules - you have my thanks, it is much appreciated.
2) If sending loads of gen from across many years PLEASE put it in chronological order before sending, especially if it's all in the same e-mail, excel spreadsheet or word document! Sticking to this will see it uploaded far quicker as it is much easier for me to plough through it without hopping back and forth over the years.
