Originally the "First Great Western Coffee Shop Forum" and now the "Great Western Railway Coffee Shop Forum", we have 357191 posts of which 42 are new posts yesterday and today.

I also note that at the moment the answer to another question is 42, and being much more tuned than Deep Thought actually know the question - "How many posts have been added yesterday and so far todaY?"
