GENERAL:
By registering for this web site, you are indicating your desire to join the site and to be granted access to the forums, articles and information stored herein. You may also choose to participate in the operation of the site by submitting articles, blog postings, images or forums postings.

USE OF REAL NAMES:
We require that real names be used on the site. While you have been required to enter a "nickname" or "handle" as part of the registration, your real name is to be selected as the "Display Name" in your profile.

VERBOTEN TOPICS:
There will be no discussion of politics or religion on this web site. Years of experience in online communities and clubs have taught us too many hard lessons, so we feel very strongly about this. Subsequently, you'll get only one warning on this, after which your account will be locked and you will be banned from the site.

FAMILY ORIENTED:
We feel that model railroading should be able to be enjoyed as a family hobby. Therefore, we ask that you "keep it clean" in your postings on the site. If you wouldn't say it in front of your five-year-old, please don't type it here.

CHANGES TO TERMS:
These terms may be updated from time-to-time as the moderators deem fit. The latest version of the terms will always be available in the forums.
