The Railway Channel
Posted by walterwhiting on Sunday, February 17, 2008 6:43 AM
I recently found the Railway Channel. They have some very cool videos from England. Only problem is, they sell your e-mail address. Since I joined, my inbox has been flooded with porn from England. I would not recommend this site. Walter Whiting

Walter's message isn't based on fact.  We have never, nor intend to, sell e-mail addresses. What would be the point?   Walter should really try to find out the truth before making such accusations.  The irony is - you don't even need to give us your e-mail address to come and view the videos - it's free and it's just there. All you need to do is watch.

I've had no trouble with Junk mail and I visit TRC quite often.

 I suggest as many as possible go and have a look at the free-to-watch videos as they are very interesting.  They also produce DVDs about garden railways and miniature railways.  Though I'm not sure whether they are available on NTSC format (Japan is the same as the US with NTSC but Region 2, which is the UK region )PAL), bu@@er!).

Walter, I'm sure you got that unwanted Email from somewhere else.  Just by surfing railway related sites I frequently pick up spyware and adware, which I remove with Yahoo Anti-Spy (the old version) and Spy-Bot.  My Hotmail Email has a junk filter that does a pretty good job.

Regards, Matthew

It has been brought to my attention by Mr. Found from the Railway Channel that my comments about the Railway Channel selling e-mail addresses is incorrect. Mr. Found assures me that he is only interested in providing railway videos to railroad enthusiasts. I believe him to be sincere and accordingly must retract any statements made and apologize to him and the Railway Channel. I hope everyone will visit his site as he does have some very cool videos.
