Re: Searching for Ecuador Steam . . .

Try the NGDF "Search" function, Drew -

Access it by clicking on the word 'Advanced' below the text-entry box and word 'Search' at the upper right corner of your NGDF page.  Enter the word "Ecuador" in the 'Search Messages' text-entry box, leave the 'Author' blank, highlight 'Narrow Gauge Discussion Forum' in the 'Forums' box and select 'All Dates' from the drop-down list in the 'Options' at the bottom.  Then click 'Search' back near the top and you should get 14+ pages of subject lines – more than 420 – from which you can choose the posts you want to read.  A subsequent search for messages containing 'Ecuador steam' found "only" 7+ pages (about 225) posts, of which you should find the recent thread starting at [ngdiscussion.net] especially interesting . . .

NOTE:  The NGDF "Search" feature does NOT like Special Characters – not even numbers – so do NOT include engine numbers or ampersands or even dashes in the 'Search Messages' input or the search feature will come to a grinding halt without finding anything.
