Uh…what happened here?

Went without a computer for a couple of weeks due to severe issues that finally resulted in getting it replaced.

Check in back here on the new beast as part of the ‘get everything back in order program’ and I find a strange jumble of threads and topics. What happened? Not even sure what forum I’m in.

I’m having issues trying to figure things out too. How do you post a new topic is one?

I had a stroke at the end of October. The site is so different that I’m not sure how to post or navigate on it. Could somebody please email me some instructions?
Thanks, David Meashey

Hi - I also was having trouble how to post a topic under a subject. But just now I see a yellow round circle on the right side of the screeen with a Arrow through it…click on it to post a new item.

It’s been over a decade…
…since I last posted here. Bart is gone, Ken is gone, how many of my old friends are still here? (G’day, Fr Fred!)

The Toenail Ridge Shortline

On Thanksgiving day, two unidentified suspects drove away with a 2014 Pace trailer which contained over forty scenic modules which were a part of the Del Oro Pacific Modular Railroad. The G-Scale model railroad scenic modules are unique and there is nothing like them in the world. The scenic modules posted by Lassen were not stolen. All of the scenes were scratch built (no kits), are contained in plywood boxes, and were built over the past 30 years oby me and Ted Greeno. The scenes are valued at over $100,000.00. Our fear is the trailer is abandoned somewhere or the boxes were dumped. A $5,000 reward has been offered.

The stolen modules included the Del Oro Yellow Station and Fuel Depot, Oil Tanks, Gray Bar Hotel (jail), Frying Pan Hot Springs, numerous redwood trees, mountain backdrops, fences, Santa Ana Zoo, US Coast Guard base (helicopter pad, dock, and sharks), Del Oro Cemetery, Bird Cage Theatre, Kory’s Pet Store, Del Oro Newsstand, Barn Dance, tunnel, oil rigs and tanks, Aspen trees, birdhouses, and Taipo Market (Chinese) railroad station.

If you have any questions, please call Joseph Jackson at (310) 963-5312 or
Dennis Packer at (213) 923-3247.

The stolen trailer was one of four trailers. The photos depicted on the LSC, fortunately, were not stolen.
