I can no longer access Kabothu's Plarail Room, one of the very best sources of Plarail information up to about 2001 or 2002. It was OK about a week ago.

It was at: www.spacelan.ne.jp/~kabothu/contents.htm

Making a backup against this happening was on my to-do list. Did anyone else get this done before it was too late? It was the one that hosted pictures like these:

I haven't heard of that place before. I just get a Forbidden, You don't have permission to access this page when I try that Link

Have you tried using the Wayback Machine which looks like the last save was in 2014? https://web.archive.org/web/20140301144904/http://www.spacelan.ne.jp/~kabothu/contents.html

Wayback works! Wow, it was a nice page, I never saw some trains pictured there...

Darn.... I had that site saved to favorites on my old phone! It could be a little clunky to navigate but it was a great resource.

Thanks. I managed to grab most of it but a total of 16 images are missing and about a third of the rest (approx 100 out of 300) I've only got as somewhat smaller thumbnail versions from Google Image Search. Still, mustn't grumble.
