Atlas Boots Genevasub Post

While trying to get the word out about the gondola giveaway, I posted to the Atlas Forum as well as Trainboard, Railnet, and Nscale.org.  The post to the Atlas forum was removed.  No communication to me as to why.  Just gone.  I'm thinking it had something to do with the post promoting a blog.  Oh well.  I'm officially boycotting the Atlas Forum.

  1. It's probably because you are giving away a MicroTrains product and not Atlas.

    Oh well is right. I never go to the Atlas Forum. I get all I need at Trainboard.

  2. Excellent point. Trainboard is cool.

  3. I agree, but then again I'm one of the moderators (lol).

    Speaking of cool, I like what you're doing with the new layout. I'm kinda curious- have you ever thought of turning the clock back to, say, the 1980s, when this was still C&NW and Falcons ran the rails? If not, no sweat.

  4. I actually did think about going way back to steam days, but concluded that there were too many differences in buildings to make it feasable. Going to the 1980s might actually be workable. I would have to make the RR partk removable to be replaced with a tower and houses, but the rest might be okay. Of course, there's also the thing of purchasing a bunch of 1980's motive power and rolling stock. That could be costly!

  5. While I like the modern look, I do miss full consists of brand new SD40-2s. And one time frame is always easiest for a layout.
