Re: Assistance with an Open University Project
Hello David
We at A5 Railroaders are just starting to set up our Operations system and would be interested in using your system in "real life".
We are based in Northampton so not too far away maybe.
You can contact me direct on freyweslian@sky.com if necessary.
