Railpage will most likely never be up again

Railpage is gone, Yuri's son has refused to keep it up or hand it over.

I think Derek means Steam4Me, which Yuri created.

If Railpage is indeed gone, feel free to upload items here under the defunct site policy.

Too late at night.

Both railpage and steam4me are gone.

Ragefail is gone???? Been years since I was there, I had no idea

The VR Railfan site with the MSTS content is still there. It must not have migrated over to the newer Railpage site as it still has the old .org address.

[tarrant75]

And what is the new address?

[ossie]

It's not new Chris. It's the old, slow page that hosted the models James Brook made. I assumed it would have gone as well when RP ended.

Was more talking of the FailRage address, or is it gone for good?

[ossie]

It sounds like it Chris. Prior to Derek's post I didn't know Yuri owned Railpage so assuming that's right, then I guess it's gone the same way as S4M. FailRage made me smile. There were many times I just gave up waiting for it to load and moved on. I'd always thought with the slow loading speed and shared railpage name in the link I posted that they were both part of the same site but it appears not. We lost a bit of content when S4M and the Aussie MSTS forum finished but at least C2N and the VR site still has a decent chunk of it. Dated or not, it is a bit of a shame it couldn't all be archived here I suppose but at least threads like this point the way for anyone who might be looking for early Aussie MSTS content.

Yuri owned Steam4me, not railpage.

[ossie]

I knew about Yuri owning S4M but saw Railpage in your first comment which got me wondering about it. We're lucky to still have VicSig, Peter Vincent & Mark Bau's sites up but Rob O'Regan's disappeared a while ago. That was a shame as I'm pretty sure it was his that had a lot of great old photos and diagrams of stations all over the state. It's easy to take things for granted until the 404 error pops up.

If I recall, Yuri started Steam4Me because of RailPage... there was some form of a disagreement or issue with them as a host.
