Some of us could even wonder where this group is today as well, since it doesn't seem to show up very well in Yahoo Group searches using "SSPM" or "S-Scale Prototype Modelers", it only seems to show up if you already know the URL. Once you actually find the site's home page, there's only one short line of text describing the group and no HomePage photo, which seems rather unimaginative, and could also explain the search difficulties as well. For a group that has been around for 11 years, yet only has 26 members, I'd say that it's pretty exclusive. It's still not clear to me exactly what this group focuses on, modeling a specific prototype (including all rivets, scratches and rust spots) as exactly as possible from plans & photos, or using exact scale measurements of the prototype (including tracks & wheels), or both.
There is another group <http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Proto64> which has been around only a couple years longer and has over 150 members. They're also a good bit faster to respond to membership requests. Seems like they might be a more useful group to join.
