An international forum for garden railway modellers in all scales and gauges. It is free to join and is funded through voluntary contributions by its members. Many thanks to all those who keep it going. https://gardenrails.org/forum/
This forum is a great place to record projects, Facebook is hopeless for that, Facebook is all about the here and now. How about advertising the forum when making a glory post to Facebook. Here's one I prepared earlier

Using my mobile video editing app I've added a huge Gardenrails.org text in my next Youtube video at the very start, and at 3:20 where I'd left a large pause. I'll leave it about a week before making it public.
The video of all the details I recorded yesterday

I quite like the engine noise without the exhaust muffler!
Since we moved away from myfreeforum.org as a host and I upgraded the forum it has been optimised for search engines to 'crawl' the site and is now mobile friendly which all helps with search engine rankings.
However, unless the forum is used daily then it will not get ranked highly by Google, etc as it will not consider the site active!

It's got a lovely deep booming tone Tom, the phone mic doesn't do it justice
I appreciate the mobile-friendly feature, I often look at it via my tiny mobile phone and it's good!
