Yes, check out www.sscale.org Ed's off to a great start with it and it's production is second to none. Also the new NASG website www.nasg.org is a vast improvement over the old one. Peter Vanvliet has done an excellent job revamping it. Tied with Ed for being second to none. My evil twin's been trying to do his apostolic work in the "Lion's Den"(so to speak,) on the O Gauge Railroading (OGR) board. I dare say Ed and Peter do much a better job of it.
