railroad.net/forums is an EXCELLENT forum! It has sub-categories for different States, Railroads, and many other interest groups. An excellent source of information!

Jason, I'm sorry AGAIN - that should be
railroad.net

That's the one with the 35+ forums within it!

Jason - sorry - I forgot another great one I just found:
railroad.com
Yet another one: rrhistorical.com
and the magazine: railwayage.com
They have about 35+ forums, very easy to use and
very active: by individual railroads, by several of the states, by several regions, and others too!

By far the best has got to be www.trainorders.com. This is my first time here and this one kind of sucks.
