<p>A lot of it is that social media sites are taking over a lot of the functions forums and chatrooms did back in the day. In the case of model railroading places like facebook and reddit are where more and more younger modelers are going when they want to talk about model trains. It's much easier to find groups and discussions about the stuff they're interested in than on a traditional message board. They're also on Pinterest, Instagram, and Youtube since those places are more geared to showing off their work. They go to those places because that's where other young people are. All those places have a hipper, much more exciting vibe to them whereas messageboards are pretty much the grumpy old men's club. </p>
