I had met Unca Larry before Dave had his blowout and I had plenty of faith in his wisdom when he went and did this. But yeah, if Dave wasn't so anal, he could have easily solved all the problems over there. What I miss most about it going away was how tightly integrated the photo portion of the board was with the forum. If a poorly labelled pix turned up, it got fixed quickly. I'm not all that big on trains, playing with the real thing kinda cures that stuff. And knowing how the railroad worked for real also made me roll my eyes a lot when the fantasies break forth. Only reason why I ever did the train boards is that railroad people are really cool folks normally, and despite the foamers, it's always nice to NOT be foaming and hanging out with them. But Unca Larry really created something mighty special here, and there's nothing I personally appreciate more than his hands-off approach and basically telling the anal HERE to stick it where the sun don't shine. Heh. Sometimes, not having adults in the room can be a good thing. :)
