Online Railroad Internet Forums

[alstom]

Hey all-

I suggest that you take a look at this newer online internet forum. It has been in business since May of 2006. Recently, it has had a severe deleting of the categories, and is in the process of being rebuilt.

The link is http://railroadforum.proboards76.com/ . It is currently small, but is undergoing various construction to enhance the size. Though it is small, it still has alot of potential. So check it out and see for yourself.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I also recommend this forum: http://alstom.proboards78.com/ . It has been in business since April 25, 2006, and I am the owner. Here we have a friendly staff team and a great selection in which you may browse.

So go ahead, take a look at either of these. They both have great potential and participants. They both also have very valuable information and facts about upcoming railroad events and etc.

I very much hope you have time to look through these two forums, and hope to see your membership soon! Enjoy!!!!

Rich

Maybe one of the reasons nobody is joining is because the topics and information are so ridiculously wrong. In the topic BNSF in danger, one poster states over 50 percent of BNSF is owned by UP. The largest investor is Marsico Capital Mangement LLC which owns % 7.14 of BNSF. Not only that, but to control 50.1 % of BNSF, UP would have had to come up with $15,183,724,955. For the record, UPs net worth is only 35 Billion.

Well, excuse me for living. I am just advertising my forum and someone else's forums, there is no need to jump me about it. I was just going by what I heard!

I wasn't saying that it IS going to happen, I was just going based on what I heard, as explained. And by the way, I am just asking for some more people to join.

Isn't funny that I have 50 members, nearly 5,000 posts and 560-something topics if everything is so wrong? Jeffrey Wimberly on there posts nothing but informative posts and facts.

So, I wasn't asking for your peace of mind, John Irelan, I was asking for members.

I would have to agree, maybe not kick off but remove the post. However, this isn't my choice to make so I'll leave that up to the powers at be.

I not gonna get in a flame war over some second rate dryed up forum (of which over 1500 of 5000 post are one member linking to rp.net shots that aren't his and I would assume are done so without the author knowing), I have to much respect for this web site and the information it provides for me to get kicked off over this.

I wasn't planning on getting into a flame war. So I will remove this topic.

EDIT: Never mind, I cannot delete it if posts have been made to it.
