OGR Forum Refugee Roll Call

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?
