For anyone who is planning on using the Multiland National Train Service, from Freedom City Train Station the times are now online :)

There is only one platform at each Multiland station, which is why no platforms have been listed.

can you tell me how to make one of those?

I cut and pasted some scripts (codes that do stuff on the internet).

I'll log into my website later and give you the details of what I used.

But first you need a website where you can edit something called HTML. Freewebs and Geocities both let you do this, Geocities takes longer to sign up for but works better than freewebs (if you use more than one code on the same page anyway) and you can customise the website more than you can on Freewebs, but Geocities is more difficult to get the hang of.

If you don't have a website already, I suggest going for Geocities and I'll help with using it and putting in the codes I mentioned.

P.S. I dunno about Freewebs, but with Geocities you can't have more than one of THE SAME code on the same page.

I'm sorry, I feel dizzy, I'll do it tomorrow instead.

Don't worry about me though, it's just lack of fluids and lack of sleep, and I'm about to have plenty of fluids and I'll go to sleep later.

O.K. here's the codes... [the bits in red are telling you what to do. you can remove them or leave them EXACTLY as they are (otherwise it may mess up the script)] Do NOT use anything outside of the TWO dashed lines (They look like this: ------- do NOT count this as one of the two), and do NOT include the dotted lines:

For the thing at the top left:

-------------------------------------

Note: <br> is the equivlant of pressing "RETURN/ENTER" if you were writing a normal document - it puts the following text on the next line. Eg.:

If you type:

BISCUIT<br>RABBIT

then it will look like this on the internet:

BISCUIT
RABBIT

<P> sends any following text to the line AFTER the next, eg:

BISCUIT<p>RABBIT

will show

BISCUIT

RABBIT

on the internet

<FONT SIZE="1"> changes the size of the text to 1. You must type it like this:
<FONT SIZE="1">YOUR TEXT</FONT>

You don't have to use numbers like I did (just delete them, eg. you can delete <FONT SIZE="2">1. </FONT> from above (the bit in purple)

Let me know if this is O.K. or if you want me to add the scripts for the other two things as well
