Thanks! Coincidentally I've been doing a bunch of work on the New
Adlestrop this evening.

I'm hoping to have a release with coverage extending as far as an east-
west line starting at Leyland, and ending at the Humber, pretty soon
now. I might then start a separate sheet north of there, as the
Illustrator file is getting _really_ slow to edit...

Guess that's not going to have anything west of Marston Moor on the
Harrogate line but will continue to keep an eye on it, as I have been
doing for a couple of years. It's extremely useful for the areas
covered so far though.

Thanks!

Once I'm clear of the Pennines it'll be plain sailing up to the
Edinburgh-Glasgow belt. It's the really dense areas that take the time
- both in terms of research and cartography. Dewsbury has not been a
bunch of fun and I'm not looking forward to Leeds in the next-but-one
release...

Wow, congratulations a lot of work!



Agreed, and the idea of releasing a draft copy for comment - and
getting it very thoroughly proof checked for free in the process -
shows an awful lot of imagination.

And there is one train a day direct from Woking to Staines round the

Unless he's planning to sell it, why shouldn't he do that?

Where did I suggest that he shouldn't?

It's implied by asking "why shouldn't he do that?". And even if he *is*
planning to sell it, what's wrong with getting it proof-checked for
free? Are you suggesting he would then be crossing some sort of ethical
boundary? Good luck to him, I say.
