First, unless I am just not looking in the right places, they seem to have done away with the MR Express section with industry news OTHER than new products.
Second, the sequence in the Forum Navigation is now magazine name > forums > topic. Versus forums > magazine name > topic.
I like to go quickly between the Trains magazine forums and the MR forums. This was easier and faster under the prior format, again unless I am missing something here.
I do like the "brighter/whiter" look of the forums themselves. Less positively the font for typing a posting seems very small compared to the rest of the page and compared to how it appears. My eyesight already causes me to miss far too many typos.

Less keen. Thats a very mild way to put the displeausre on the new website.
YES IT'S REALLY ANNOYING TYPING IN THE POST BODY WHEN THE FONTS ARE SO TINY!
Way too many problems with this new site, they didn't even test it. Its 2013 website software shouldn't be this bad. Every other site on the internet doesn't work this way.

Doesn't like to work when I do it either.
Let's see if it works with the old URL tags. Trains Magazine
Yep, works that way. Must be some snafu in the software.

Nope. Not gonna work like that. It works like this though. Click Here.
Thanks Jeff, That's one way, I did not try yet. At least it works!
I sent you a PM on it.
jeffrey-wimberly I sent you a PM on it.
Jeff,
Thanks, just got your PM, on my email,that was fast and that even works now. Getting rid of the bugs.
Now if they'd fix the email notifications and the logout. Still getting 'Server Error In '/' Application'. To log out (if I should have to for some reason) requires me to clear all my cookies thus logging me out of all my other sites too. Inconvenient to say the least. They also need to get the spell checker working. For now I'm typing my replies into the reply box on MY forum where there's a spell checker then I copy and paste it here.
