It took a lot of thought... [:P]

After being away from MRR for about 15 years I came to this forum because MR mag was and still is my favorite mag. However, when I joined the forum I had no idea what name, handle, to choose. Now that I have named my RR I would like to change my forum name to reflect my RR name.

Is there a way to change your forum name/handle?

Mine is stupidly simple
Vsmith = Victor Smith, duh![:p]

Union Pacific Grayhound Challengers #s 3977-3980. Arguably the most beutiful locomotives to ever exist and my altime favorite. (Followed in a close second by a GN Big Sky Blue F-Unit) So that is how I became Grayhound Challenger.

My screen-name goes back to about 1987 when I had a character for a science-fiction roleplaying game (the hobby I temporarily left model railroading for in high school and college) by that name. I started using it online in 1988 when I called the Steve Jackson Games "Illuminati" BBS and have used it as an online handle ever since...

the school i go to our school name is the Blackhawks but since most teams with terms used by Indians now are being sued and what not we usually go by the Hawks. that is what is on all our jerseys and on the basketball court. but still we are the Blackhawks. 05 is the year i graduate and 5 is my lucky number.

Hawks05 - school name plus year of graduation.

I was too enthusiastic about having bought the microsoft Train Simulator and the Flying Scotsman was my favorite loco, hence the name. (real name is Charlie)

How did you come up with your forum I.D name ?

Mine is from the area that I model and that I am from
the east US. Hence, eastcoast.
