The self described “FINEST BIG TRAIN INDEX SITE ON THE WEB !!” aka G-Scale-Links.com …has gone the way of the DoDo.

Nuts!, this was a great “one stop” site to reference several large scale site across the gambit from manufacturers to dealers to small suppliers. I dont know if it will be renewed, the odds are against it if other websites are good examples. Some of the links in the smaller supplier catagories were no longer active, but for the most part, it was the best place to survey the large scale world. I have to say I learned the most about the retail and supplier side of the hobby by going thru this site. It will be missed.

Hmmmmmmmmm, could be a matter of the guy forgetting to renew the domain. Or he figures he spent enough time and money on that project. :wink: :slight_smile:

There have been many broken links on that site for a long time, indicating it was not maintained. I’m not surprised it was gone. Maybe I should add a links page to my web site, under the FAQ. I’ve accumulated a heck of a lot of links in my favorites.

Good idea, but a lot of work to keep current. :wink:
