Hi Guy's,

It seems that Railpage may be down again as I have not been able to upload
my sightings or access my web page since about 2100 Sun night. If anyone
needs the sightings emailed in an attached MS Word file please email me.

9140 was through Gheringhap at 0536 this morning (Mon) so it looks like the
diversions via Ballarat are over for a while.

Regards, Graham Elliott.

Gheringhap Loop is at the 82/83 Kp post South West of Melbourne Australia.

Please visit Gheringhap Loop Sightings. http://www.railpage.org.au/ghaploop

We don't have any bandwidth quotas. It's an occasional problem of the
server maxing out on memory and freezing, which means somebody needs to
go into the data centre to reboot it. Bearing in mind that we all have
real jobs, this can only be done when somebody in Melbourne has spare time.

And to the people complaining when it occasionally goes down, or who
sent us not very politely worded suggestions, remember that it is
provided for free. You are more than welcome to contribute to the
$15,000 or so per year it costs to run RailPage.

Cheers
David

Who pays for it? Seems an awful amount of money to pay for a hobby.

The unfortunate thing is that you can access sites that are hosted by
railpage either - never known such a slow site.
