Just in case anyone wanted to know the status of the RR Line Forum.


My friend Rick and admin over there sent me an email.



He has ordered new servers and other stuff.
Going to take at least a few more weeks.

I don't generally use the RR-Line forums (I find it clunky to navigate), but I do feel for them if they suffered a viral attack.

Porting a forum is difficult even when you're prepared...

Actually Craig he's been wanting to change over for a long time.


But what also worried him was about losing posts when he does the conversion.


Hopefully it will be a lot easier for us to post pictures there.

Thanks for the update, Jerry.  I'm rooting for Joe accomplishing the complete transfer.  There's a lot of content from people I knew, but will never see again.

We are wishing them the best. There is some great content and hobby history there, that I would hate to see the hobby loose.

Your so right John.


There is so much history of guys who posted there and are no longer with us.
And would be a dam shame to lose all that.
