    Very strange, on my PC's screen the link to the latest pictures in the centre of the screen near the top, just below the green bar announcing that the SSG timetables are now available.

    My page goes down the left third of your image, then the middle and finally the right hand third.
    Previously I used to get the whole image as normal.
    Nothing changed at my end and as stated earlier only this page affected.

    Sounds like the website thinks you'r using a mobile to view the page, strange.

    It sounds like the page view is enlarged.
    Try pressing Ctrl/- a few times & see if it reduces back to normal. I think this works with most browsers on a PC.
    That's the Ctrl & the minus keys together.

    I've Just had a look at the site on my phone, and it looks just as you describe. Somehow whatever device you're viewing the site on thinks you're using a mobile phone.
    Sometimes I wish there was a way to tell my phone to use the proper version of a site not the reformatted mobile version which I find much harder to navigate than the proper version.

    There often is, in browser settings there's a "View desktop version" button which can be ticked on google chrome.

    Yes, the QB stock is in use in the evening on the Friday and Lunchtime on Sunday. With the limited number of volunteers and the fact the generator car can only run for 9 hours it won't be viable to have it running in the mornings as well. All the more reason to visit on Thursday :)

    Or Ctrl+0 (zero) is often the "reset to 100% zoom" key

    Confirmed by the NYMR GM Chris Price on Monday 17th at a public meeting, that North Star will move to Pickering for the duration.
    Will take over the duties that the 26 covered last year before its return North.
    No dates known yet.

    Reset to fit screen I think. 100% is Ctrl+1 (at least on my PC, also works in photoshop).

    It may depend on your web browser, but it's definitely Ctrl+0 in Google Chrome. Ctrl+1 is "switch to tab 1" (and digits 2-9 are also "switch to tab n")

    Apologies, I now realise you are referring to the size of the web page and writing on screen. I was referring to images.
