==Introduction==
The 2013 UK Transport Tycoon Forums meet is planned to take place in '''London''' on the 28th July (a Sunday this year, rather than the Saturdays of old). We will initially be congregating at a Wetherspoons pub, '''The Moon Under Water''', at '''Leicester Square''' for drinks and lunch. Plans for the rest of the day are still to be finalised. See below for further details on the venue, activities, and getting around London.

As with previous years, we will not be able to accept responsibility for under-18s at the meet, so we respectfully ask that you do not attend if you are under 18 unless you are accompanied by a parent or guardian. As our initial venue is a public house, please be aware that '''entrance or service may be refused to under-18s'''. If this happens, I'm afraid we can't do anything to help you out.

Or basically anywhere on -> [http://www.tfl.gov.uk/assets/downloads/london-rail-and-tube-services-map.pdf] <- this map.

==Activities==

=== Socialising! ===

The main focus of the meet is to get to know each other, enjoy a few pints, eat burgers, and have a laugh! While you're welcome to bring your laptop to play a game of OpenTTD or similar, you'll probably find that most people won't have gone to the trouble of doing so.

=== Other activities ===

Still to be finalised. If you have any suggestions, please post them!

TT Meet 2012

2012-06-18T09:45:22Z

47434: /* I'm pretty sure I'm coming! */

{{TT Meet}}
==Introduction==
The 2012 UK Transport Tycoon Forums meet is planned to take place in '''Crewe''' on the 25th August. The exact plan is still to be finalised, but is likely to involve time in a pub and potentially a visit to the Crewe Heritage Centre. See below for further details on the venue, activities, and getting around Crewe.

As with previous years, we will not be able to accept responsibility for under-18s at the meet, so we respectfully ask that you do not attend if you are under 18 unless you are accompanied by a parent or guardian. As our initial venue is a public house, please be aware that '''entrance or service may be refused to under-18s'''. If this happens, I'm afraid we can't do anything to help you out.

Let us know how and when you're getting to the meet. This way, we will be able to know when people are arriving, and can let people know if they're likely to be travelling together or meeting each other at a station. Please try to keep all entries in time order!

===There===
* [[User:orudge|orudge]] - Train from North Wales, arriving 11:18 (although I can be flexible - if others plan to arrive earlier, let me know)
* [[User:GeoGhost|Geo Ghost]] - Train from Stevenage via London. Shall post times when tickets are available.
* Lankku - Train from Loughborough, changing at Derby
* Dave W - Will travel on the morning. Only takes about an hour.
* Jamie - From Birmingham Noo Street on the day.
* 47407 - East Croydon - MKC/Watford Jn, then onwards to Crewe
*[[User:SkeedR|SkeedR]] WVH -> CRE

===Back===

* [[User:orudge|orudge]] - Back to North Wales, departing 16:23
* [[User:GeoGhost|Geo Ghost]] - Train back to Stevenage via London. Shall post times when tickets are available.
* Lankku - Train to Loughborough, changing at Derby
* Dave W - Travelling back to the Midlands on the day
* Jamie - Back to Birmingham Noo Street on the day.
* 47407 - Reverse of before
*[[User:SkeedR|SkeedR]] CRE -> WVH

===Travel around Crewe===

The initial venue for the meet is still to be decided, but is likely to be a pub.

We may move away from the pub later in the day, so if you think you're going to be arriving later than, say, 1pm, please let Owen know and he can try to update you on our location later in the day.

TODO

==Overnight in Crewe==
The following people will be staying in or near Crewe over the weekend:

* Nobody

==Activities==

=== Socialising! ===

The main focus of the meet is to get to know each other, enjoy a few pints, eat burgers, and have a laugh! While you're welcome to bring your laptop to play a game of OpenTTD or similar, you'll probably find that most people won't have gone to the trouble of doing so.

=== Quiz ===

Owen is pondering rustling up a little quiz for you all, to see just how much you know about the forums and the game! Well, that was supposedly going to happen last year... maybe this year instead.

=== Crewe Heritage Centre ===

It has a miniature railway. Nuff said. Plus a variety of other interesting things. [http://www.creweheritagecentre.co.uk/ Check their web site for more information.]

More importantly it has the only preserved simulated working lever frame in the country! [[User:Lordmwa|Lordmwa]] 16:18, 25 April 2012 (UTC)
Oh no it isnt! The Lavender Line has a working signal from a frame :) [[User:47407|47407]] 11:42, 16 May 2012 (UTC)

=== Trading and Bartering ===

Lankuu will be buying Jamie a doughnut that he owes since the London meet. Or possibly the other way round...

=== Screaming Contest ===

'''Contestants''':

Owen's daughter<br>
Andel's daugher<br>
Jamie

Winner gets to steal candy from Dave.

TT Meet 2012

2012-06-16T13:15:35Z

47434: /* I'm pretty sure I'm coming! */

{{TT Meet}}
==Introduction==
The 2012 UK Transport Tycoon Forums meet is planned to take place in '''Crewe''' on the 25th August. The exact plan is still to be finalised, but is likely to involve time in a pub and potentially a visit to the Crewe Heritage Centre. See below for further details on the venue, activities, and getting around Crewe.

As with previous years, we will not be able to accept responsibility for under-18s at the meet, so we respectfully ask that you do not attend if you are under 18 unless you are accompanied by a parent or guardian. As our initial venue is a public house, please be aware that '''entrance or service may be refused to under-18s'''. If this happens, I'm afraid we can't do anything to help you out.

==Attendance==

* [[User:Jonty-comp|Jonty-comp]] 21:46, 27 May 2012 (UTC) - Might as well, beats sitting in Chesterfield having to put up with my parents. By this point I will be terribly homesick of nerds and students.

*[[User:47434|47434]] 14:14, 16 June 2012 (BST): Probably coming by train from Huddersfield. Will know more on Monday when the football fixtures come out.
