Well! I forgot I signed up for this site a while back. I plan forgot. I plan to check this out now that the OGR is going to charge. I used to below to a yahoo forum for lionel and MTH but that appears to have been taken over with prono listing of all things! Nothing is safe anymore!
I was really worried when I read the name of this topic! I was expecting a real warning about eBay or some train related problem.
It will be very interesting to see how the infux of new members here effects this forum. After the newness wears off, this forum should benefit from the wealth of new ideas and opinions.
They’re not getting MY money. I am not renewing my subscription when it
runs out in a couple months. Too elitist for my tastes. Mutual admiration
society over there.
I looked around in several train forums. I saw that the O Gauge Railroad forum was going to charge just to ask questions and get advice. I’m pretty new to setting up trains and I know that I will have some questions. I know basic electricity and carpentry, but i still need some help with designing a layout and operating my trains. It seems that the other forums don’t like toy trains as much as they like detailed scale models like is in a museum. Those are nice but I like my old trains. The people on that forum seem to be kind of nasty and stuck up especially to new members. I joined up here and I think I made a good choice.
The dissappointing thing is that Rich Melvin is charging to post on ALL the OGR forums.
If we’re trying to get more people interested in the hobby, that ain’t the way to do it, folks.
While they’re at it, why not go back to 2-rail only? I think we’ve got the three rail thang covered here…
