Hi Bill,

It's not on YaHoo.  

The OGR board is run by O Gauge Railroading Magazine and is moderated to a 
degree by such.  They have lined up sponsors so the forums can remain free.

They have multiple forums covering tinplate to the prototype under their 
umbrella and have graciously added the S Scale forum several years ago.

Here's the link to the S Scale forum:

http://ogaugerr.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/frm/f/2721001123

Granted, it's populated mostly by Flyer folks, but scalers do pop in 
occasionally, and it is also viewed by several O Gaugers.  I pretty much hang 
out over there.

What I really like about the OGR forums is you can embed photo's and videos 
within your postings.  What better way to show off S to the "O"ther guys and 
the world.  

It's also very open.  Signing up allows to post on any of their fourms.

The current drawback is postings disappear after six months and you need to use 
something like Photobucket to post photos, but that's about to change soon.

It's also a good place to see what the "O"ther guys are doing.  Some of those 
guys do fantastic work.  It sort of helps you to understand why it's just as 
hard to draw guys away form O as it is from HO.
