Not a refugee, since I actually posted HERE first![;)]
Superwarped,
I’m sure the management of said radio station will be pleased to see me spending more of my off-air time writing and producing and less gabbing with the OGR crew!
Anyways, I’ll decide come late May. But I must say this does appear to be a very nice place to hang out! I wonder if they’ll have a booth at Springfield???

I don’t know about ORG but I should have my tables at the Big E next year.
I did not know that this was here till a few months ago. Checked it out just that one time. After I read about the charges on OGR I thought I just see what this site was like. The first topic I saw was about the same problem I was having. It was easy to post a reply. What little I have read seems to be just as imformative with helpful members. I will be visiting more often. Still on the fence about paying to be a forum member.[:)]
It was nice to see some familar names. Makes one feel at home.
I had been over here before, and I enjoy the current format over here a BUNCH better than what they had here before. I think OGR is messing up with the $18, tho. I think they’ll be helping out Kalmbach and Atlas with the fee. Of course, I may yet be paying the $18 yet.
Hi,
I am not exactly a refugee because I have posted occasionally over here as well. I enjoy OGR’s Forum because it seemed as if news broke over there first concerning catalogs and other news. I always felt a little guilty as I do some writing from time to time for CTT. Perhaps activity will pick up over here now, but I hope the OGR bunch continues to do well. We need both groups to keep each other honest.
Keep on training,
Mike C. from Indiana
LocoK in the house. I registered here before, but for the life of me I can’t remember my password, email addressed used, or anything…
But it is great seeing some familiar name.
Here!
Planning to start my new train layout this weekend now that the basement is finished.

Congratulations, Dave. I can’t wait to hear on Monday what you were able to do.
OK, I have joined on many forums, I am even moderate a few.
I have read this forum, and have seen what a few “memebers” had to say about the ‘new wave’ coming in. They did not like it at all. There are 2 people on here, that will remain nameless(but you know who they are) That think they own the joint and strut around like there **** don’t stink.
I am another that started posting on this forum before I found OGR. My posting here has not been as prolific as on OGR since then.
I never got the impression that the standards forum was there trying to tell me how to run or design my layout. I thought it was there for the guys that are into Hi-rail to work out standards that could be given to the manfufacturers of hi-rail stuff so it would all play together. On the other hand, I could be wrong.
Far as I know, I’m not a hi-rail guy. I want to try scenicing & such, but I’m not going to count rivets or make sure that every figure & building is exactly 1/48 th scale & has a prototype. Life’s too short to worry about that stuff. And anyway, it’s my pike & I’ll do as I d*mn please, thank you very much.
Heck my new scale k-line Mikado is pulling a bunch of “traditional sized” freight cars right now. Looks fine to me!
I intend to visit both forums, at least for the foreseaable future. If the OGR forum becomes a dead zone, I won’t renew my membership.
And Chris? Regarding anyone who “struts around like their **** don’t stink,” there are jerks everywhere. Why should this forum (or GRR) be any different?
Tony
Tony, don’t pay any attention to Chris. He’s been kicked off more forums than he can count.
I think that things will stabilize over at the OGR site and that it will weather the storm, so to speak.

I’ll try here for a while.
Bob C,
Only 2 posts! That would make you a freshman…
Hi BobC.
Are you a refugee, then, or are you trying to lure us back? If a refugee, then welcome. Well, welcome anyway.
Hi I’m a newbie here too,Only posted a few times on OGR but all replys were very helpfull.I get a lot of my questions and problems solved by looking at other posts.Heard about this site and desided to see what all it can offer. Glad to have two good forums to go to.I Have A modern-Era TMCC layout. Glad to be aboard. Orail
It’s good indeed to see familiar names on board here. This looks like a good place to get and share information. One thing I like is that it doesn’t have information overload. I have limited time to devote to discussing trains, so a concise board is more helpful to me.
My son and I visited the VIrginia Museum of Transportation in Roanoke earlier this week, while in the area visiting family. I shot some digital video, but only took film stills, so when I get those processed I’ll post a few if they’re any good.
