It seems when I am jumping around I keep getting logged off. Am I doing something wrong?

I would rather have to socialize with my ex-wife than go through that registration process again. I think I have the Reverse Midas Touch - if I touch it, it malfunctions.

Took over a dozen or more tries before I managed to get all eight fingers and both thumbs to work together, but I'm here and it's like coming home, tempered by some sadness over the events elsewhere. (I can be PC if I have to...)

Anyway, glad to be here. It would have been lonesome without familiar "faces". Smilies are nice, too!

Oh, nuts...I just realized I have to start all over again with a post count.

Thanks for the invitation to join in the fun... it is already sounding familiar here with the names of all our old friends logged on. Here's wishing the new, improved Gauge and long and successful "run", and a big howdy to all the old hands already on board.

Ok, I am probably missing it, but is there a setting somewhere to subscribe automatically to threads that you post in?

This is fantastic, thanks for the invite. I have to go to bed now but will be back tomorrow to look around. I can't believe how happy I am!

G'day. Just check in.


Cheers

I wondered what caused the moderator exodus... I figured it couldn't have been coincidence!

Looking forward to the good community that was The Gauge being reincarnated here.

I'll even try to play nice.

Hopefully you folks can keep it alive without having to go the commercial route the other board went.

Cheers!

WOW!! My first ever first first post!!

Buy or trade - I have a Riva Lt Pacific & Riva IHB 0-8-0 loco (only) if you need parts.

I need a Riva BigBoy driverod, 2nd-3rd or 3rd-4th.

regards,

Well, it looks like I'm making the jump from the old forums!

This gives me the oppertunity to start with a fresh layout thread, since my old one was easily the most epically long and ancient thread within the first 2 pages of the HO section on zealot. It also lets me name it more accurately, considering I rarely have new pictures.

That said, I do have layout news!

Just today, I have taken on my second ever HO steam locomotive. I model Conrail, but a Pennsy J1 2-10-4 can never hurt.... I'll get pictures of the J1, and some extra old ones to fill the thread out soon!

Here is a Christmas-model train video that was posted on another site. Thought it was pretty cool
