Welsh Wikipedians' Notice Board
Thanks for moving my RfC. I hadn't even spotted there was a talk page, d'oh. I saw the Notice Board, so I pinned something to it. No malice intended. Cheers, Daicaregos (talk) 19:57, 1 September 2008 (UTC)
Paper Trail (T.I. album)
Why do you keep threatning and blocking me? The song "What Up, What's Happening" was not produced by Danja, it was produced by Drumma Boy. How am I vandalizing anything if I'm allowed to edit pages. It doesn't make sense.

After another warning for vandalism on Paper Trail following the block, he's done it again. You know what to do. —Do U(knome)? yes...or no 06:00, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- Oops. Didn't read the wikibreak tag. Sorry —Do U(knome)? yes...or no 06:01, 17 September 2008 (UTC)
- And he reverted his vandalism anyway so..nothing! —Do U(knome)? yes...or no 06:07, 17 September 2008 (UTC)

Eritrean Railway Brakes
You say that there are no continuous brakes, however the picture of the tank wagon appears to show some brake hoses, looking more like vacuum brakes than air brakes. Can you explain the inconsistancy? Tabletop (talk) 09:23, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
- Hmmm - the photo certainly appears to be some form of through brake-pipe. Maybe continuous brakes were used in the past, or the wagons were provided with the equipment but it was never used. I can only speculate I'm afraid. The only thing I can confirm is that there's nothing on the passenger stock at present. I believe there is a book in preparation about the railway - this may shed some light when it's published. — Tivedshambo (t/c) (logged on as Pek) 11:09, 13 November 2008 (UTC)

- We will have to wait and see. Given the steep gradients, non-continuous brakes are a puzzle. Eritrea would be one of the few places in the world where this still happens. The cabin on the end of the tank wagon does suggest a brake-man. Maybe ER had working continuous brakes, but due to lack of maintainance they fell out of use and manual braking was introduced as a stop-gap!? Tabletop (talk) 04:15, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
Thank you for fixing that move. It's so frustrating sometimes to come across copy-paste moves and have to wait for someone else to help fix it! :) Thanks again, Somno (talk) 07:37, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
