This is an advance notice of several changes coming to the Timeline feature within the next couple of days:
.
1. Atlas Routes will be able to be changed directly by Admins. This has been a really long-pending request, but will now be available.
.
2.
...
more...
ALL Established Members (> 100 positive opinions) will directly be able to make Timeline updates to stations, trains, locos, etc. (Everything except Atlas routes)
.
3. When regular Members make updates, ONLY the Timeline will get updated. The actual Train, Station, etc. will NOT get updated. The corresponding Timelines will have a status of WaitList, and will be available in a separate "WL Timeline" list.
.
4. There will be Confirm and Void buttons on WL Timeline entries, available ONLY to Admins. Any ** Admin would be able to click on the "Confirm" button to APPROVE the update. When the "Confirm" button is clicked, the corresponding Train, Station, Loco will get immediately updated with the information contained in the Timeline. The Timeline's status will change to "Confirmed".
.
5. The Timeline will have credits for "Updated By" (member) and "Confirmed By" (admin) with the corresponding timestamps.
.
6. Once again, WL Timeline entries will lead to NO changes. ONLY Confirmed Timeline entries will result in actual changes to the site. This is to preserve the integrity of updates.
.
7. ALL Timeline updates will be enabled for Imaginary trains.
.
8. Members will ALSO be able to make Timeline updates to other members' Imaginary trains. But only the Timeline will be updated with a status of WL. The creator member will be able to Confirm the WL Timeline to actually apply the changes to his/her Imaginary train.
.
The following are the benefits of this scheme:
1. Members will not have to create separate blogs asking Admins to update. Admins will not have to re-type in the entire tedious info. One quick Confirm button click will do the job.
.
2. Members will be credited for their individual updates and Admins will be credited for their updates & confirmations.
.
3. All member credits will reflect in the Member profile.
.
.
Atlas Routes will be able to be changed directly ONLY by Admins. This has been a long-pending change, but will now be available.
.
Once again, all of the above will be available in a couple of days. This is just an advance notice, since members are likely to see many more update links enabled.
.
Thanks for everyone's patience as we attempt to streamline and implement some long-pending suggestions and improvements.

Another much pending demand resolved, red flaggers in the imaginary train sections have to justify their red flags.
A welcome change, thank you a lot, moderator.

    These days, every other day, we are getting requests from members to allow email login to their FB-based IRI account. 10 years ago, we had given the option for users to login through FaceBook - in retrospect, this was a mistake. These days, apparently, users are quitting FaceBook in droves because...

    There are some changes coming to FMT. Many of the features of FMT, like station arrival, TT, speed, geo, passing times, station time, etc. are ALREADY available in OTHER railway apps. So all of these features will be REMOVED. We'll have ONLY BLOGGING - quick upload of pics/videos/audio, etc. You may attach...
