Hi Moose, a question for you. Do you have a web site about your model railroad? I may have missed this in some other area but you can confirm for me. A quick description of your empire will also help. Just post it here or e-mail me Thanks for your interest. ------------------ Robin member #35 NARA member #2 Maberly and Tayside
As much as I would love to be involved, my modeling/rr web time is at its max, having just entered a PhD program online at the University of Leicester, England. Maybe I can join in about 4-years, when this education thing is out of the way!! Happy Modeling and I support NARA in spirit!

Mr. Jcater sir,if you would like to join us in spirit we would gladly welcome you to our little group. ------------------ Catt!member#118 NARA member#1 A proud member of NARA & A freelancer to the very end
I second what Catt says John. There is only one little job to do if you wish to and that is to add NARA to your web site. Not a have to but rather a choice to do so or not. I will be discussing what Catt or I would like to see on your web sites. We will create a small html file which should be easy for all that want it. ------------------ Robin member #35 Proud to be a foundation member of NARA , #2 Maberly and Tayside
Sounds good to me guys!! Happy to add it to my site (I guess since the layout that is featured on my site no longer exists, it too will be with you in spirit !! Once I get things up and running with the new layout, I can move the NARA info to that page, but that will be down the road a piece, I think!) Happy Modeling!! John ------------------ The Santa Fe and Southwestern, Chief of the Southwest!!
Gettin' up on the ol Catt!box here to announce that our very own Colonel has joined NARA today. I would like to take a moment of your time to welcome Alan,Paul,wt&c,and Sticky Monk to our ranks. I am waiting confirmation before announcing other new members to our group. ------------------ Catt!member#118 NARA member#1 A proud member of NARA & A freelancer to the very end
Still not sure exactly what NARA is, but how's this for a logo? ------------------ Ed Harrison Ed's Mental Cab Ride

But I don't talk BNSF or UP! What is Geritol anyway? Gary. ps. I really like your graphics, Ed. What program do you use to creat them? ------------------ Gary A. Rose The Unofficial TC&W page TrainBoard Moderator and Member No.377 N to the Nth degree!

What program do you use to creat them? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Nice save Gary. I don't model Canada or the Eastern Seaboard either. Geritol is a product marketed in the US for over a hundred years. It's supposed to help old timers find energy and youth again. The software is Microsoft's PhotoDraw (an Adobe rip-off). ------------------ Ed Harrison Ed's Mental Cab Ride
Hopefully this won't offend the handcar and trolley crowds! Oh yeah, and the subway and monorail crowds. ------------------ Ed Harrison Ed's Mental Cab Ride
Great work Ed. Thanks for doing this. I am putting something together for Catt's review and will include this. ------------------ Robin member #35 Proud to be a foundation member of NARA , #2 Maberly and Tayside
