    There's a Model Railroad Forum, but I can't get on it even though I'm listed as a Member.

    I'm planning a new layout since recently moving and turning 86, so I need to get with those guys again!

    Can you help?
    Thanks,
    Hal

    Go to the forum, login with your username, which appears to be “Water Stop”, and if you do not have the password for the forum written down, then there should be an option for a lost or forgotten password.
    If you choose that, they will send you a link to reset your password for that website, and then you can sign in with the new password.

    Please tell me how to log on to this website! I have forgotten my logon name and my Password.

    I have moved and need help in planning a new layout in my apartment.

    Thanks,
    Hal

    Which website, @Harold Pollner ? You are logged into this Senior’s Only website, or you could not be posting here.
    If you are trying to log into the railroad website, it looks like your log in name is “Water Stop”; but there is no way that anyone else would know your password for that website.

    Here is what i suggest:
    1.try to log in using Water Stop as your username, and then put in your best guess of what your password is. If it is wrong, then you should get a prompt for a lost password.
    2. You will then need to give them your email address probably, and they will email you a link to log in and change your password, so you can choose a new password and write it down for future use.

    Yvonne, I just want to get back on a Model Railroad discussion group, as I recently moved and need help with planning my new, smaller HO layout. (Formerly O-Scale.)

    Thanks,
    Hal

    #1 Click here.
    You will be taken to this webpage:
    Hal Train Forum.jpg


    Enter the email address you registered with there, or enter your Username and click the Reset button.

    The website will reset your password and email you instructions on how to move forward. They will send those instructions to the email address you gave when you registered.

    #2 If that does not work, click here
    You will be taken to a Contact Us form that you can fill out to get ore specific help.

    #3 Or you can call them at (416) 341-8950. They are in Toronto, which is the same time zone as the east coast of the US.

    Let us know if any of this works.

    Hal, isn't there someone you could ask to help you in person?

    Yes, Beth...her name is Amanda and she is supposedly quite knowledgeable in such matters.

    Important:...Does anyone know if the newest generation of Bachmann Ho Locomotives with DCC and Sound are an improvement over those of an earlier generation?

    Thanks a Lot!
