Re: VR railcam chat rooms are not competition for Trainorders or any discussion forums

Thanks so much, Jack, for the compliment. Much appreciated!
VR and RailStream are fun to watch, and I like to watch the VR La Plata (Missouri) webcam, but the chat in no way substitutes for a forum. BTW -- I get a kick out of how close the trains on the near track seem to be to the La Plata webcam, especially when hot trains zoom past at 70 per! Quite exciting!! But it turns out -- from a good look at the station that shows where those webcams are on the building -- that they are really at least 6 feet from the sides of the trains that go past the station on the near track. Busy place,with lots of trains, including Amtrak's 3 and 4 -- the Southwest Chief -- every day. I also do not pay for a VR membership. Am fine with the webcams I can see for free.
