Did you know ... that we have a number of short cuts on the Coffee Shop to useful resources.  These are all promotable, sharable, book-markable and permanent.   And they will work with alternative domains such as firstgreatwestern.info  and gwr.passenger.chat and great-western.info

First and foremost - here's "I need help"  ... http://www.passenger.chat/help

Now - other common stuff ...

http://www.passenger.chat/news - takes you to the most recent posts
http://www.passenger.chat/join - forum registration page
http://www.passenger.chat/register - forum registration page (alternative URL)
http://www.passenger.chat/about - about the Coffee Shop web site
http://www.passenger.chat/who - who we are - people behing running the Coffee Shop
http://www.passenger.chat/newcomer - newcomers start here and a reference for others
http://www.passenger.chat/reference - (also) newcomers start here and a reference for others
http://www.passenger.chat/faq - Frequently asked questions
http://www.passenger.chat/constitution - our constitution

... and some more current links

http://www.passenger.chat/photos - advice to photographers of trains
http://www.passenger.chat/flex - flexible season tickets
http://www.passenger.chat/apcoa - an experience with car parkin, penalty and appeal
http://www.passenger.chat/coronavirus - advise on coronavirus and travel
http://www.passenger.chat/melksham - Melksham Specific
http://www.passenger.chat/Waterloo - Campaign - Britol, Bath, West Wilts to Waterloo trains

There are a lot of other links that us a pattern to give you a quick sharable link. Pattern:

example http://www.passenger.chat/b12 - Board, change number for different board
(board 12 is "London to the West", board 4 is "Fares Fair" and so on.)
If you visit a board index, the board number can be read from the URL.

example http://www.passenger.chat/12767 - thread, change number for a different thread
(this example takes you to a discussion on public and internal incident reporting)
If you visit a thread, the thread number can be read from the URL.
Add an image name such as http://www.passenger.chat/28789hp01
and that will change the image to the named one from my database.
For Facebook sharing - the image will be the one Facebook highlights if you post the URL there

example http://www.passenger.chat/28340.347299 - thread and message number to jump to
If you visit a thread and message, the thread and message number can be read from the URL.
Add .imagename to change the picture http://www.passenger.chat/28763.347126.ir24_0c and similar
and that will change the image to the named one from my database.
For Facebook sharing - the image will be the one Facebook highlights if you post the URL there

Change the WSB» (Westbury - next trains) to any other three letter station code in the following
example http://www.passenger.chat/WSB - jump to page relating to a particular station



Here are other short cuts which still work but are archived / parked at present

http://www.passenger.chat/photograph
http://www.passenger.chat/manager
http://www.passenger.chat/meet-the-manager
http://www.passenger.chat/meetthemanager
http://www.passenger.chat/petition
http://www.passenger.chat/calendar
http://www.passenger.chat/talk
http://www.passenger.chat/chat
http://www.passenger.chat/test

And once members have made a certain number of posts, they will automatically be admitted to the "frequent posters club", where subjects not-for-public-domain are discussed; anything from the occasional rant to meetups we may be having ...
