  If a group ever needed a name change it's that one SS TOT sounds more like a 
toy battleship than a model railroading group. I don't know why they didn't 
just call it Modern S scale modeler or something like that?
  I really see no reason to go to a different site to discuss modern era 
modeling as we have no over abundance of interesting modeling threads here and 
some guys model the 2 gen. diesel era which dovetails with the modern era quite 
well. I don't really understand why some one thought this site is not adequate 
for modern era modelers needs or why they thought a modern era site was needed? 
I look at us as all S scale modelers just spread out along the time line of 
railroad history...DaveBranum
