Like all of you, we have been made aware of the upcoming shuttering of the popular Atlas Forums.

Although many of you may think that we are/were in competition with the Atlas Forum, I have never felt that way. Atlas is a well-known and trusted manufacturer of model railroad products. For many years their online presence has included discussion forums. But, their main business is the products they produce.

In contrast, we are primarily a forum web site. We started as a (simple) discussion forum and everything else that we have now (photo uploading, blogs, etc.,) came later. We continue to explore ways to add enjoyment to the experience of those that come here, both members and visitors.

N Scalers,

TrainBoard is working with Micro-Trains in regard to a special run project. We are not talking about a car that says "TrainBoard," but most likely a fallen flag item (something real). We are not sure whether it will be a boxcar (most likely), tank car, etc.

We are open to suggestions. Do not post them here, you can e-mail if you like using the Contact Us link. We know some of you folks will have some very interesting suggestions.

We would like to get some ideas from you as to what your interest would be. Please read the poll question and respond ...

Why am I interested in railways?

This isn't a question of "what event made me interested". I can't trace that, though I can trace many that shaped my view of railways.

Most children are attracted to trains. Why do some people...
