Discussion related to everything about model railroading, from layout design and planning, to reviews of related model tools and equipment. Discussion includes O, S, HO, N and Z, as well as narrow gauge topics. Also includes discussion of traditional "toy train" and "collector" topics such as Lionel, American Flyer, Marx, and others. Also includes discussion of outdoor garden railways and live steamers.

There's some crossover opportunities between virtual scale and physical modeling. The ORTS and Trainz communities are finding their 3d models can be ported and printed to HO and N scale.

Maybe they should try to add a video game section with reviews and play hints for the many railroad related video games available. Just a possible way to stabilize readership levels.
Try openrails.org - it's a lot more fun than a cartoon game.
