Good afternoon!

Hello everybody. I am just about to start a complete rebuild of my model railway empire - an old fashioned expression, I know, but I am an old guy (81 and still going). I have two principle interests, 0 gauge and H0 scale. I use the term 0 gauge as I freely and happily mix rtr models of both coarse and fine scale standards. In H0 my interest lies in European Railways and once again, I freely mix countries. I guess I'm the guy for who the term 'generic' was invented :cool:!
Just to show where I'm coming from, a couple of pictures of the old layouts now involved in removal and rebuild!SAM_1128.JPG
The old H0 terminal. It's amazing how you don't see the guy who has fallen over until you've taken the picture :rolleyes:. SAM_1674.JPG
This is a Dapol Jinty in the Acme Products private siding on my old 0 gauge layout.
I look forward to associating with interest parties and fellow travellers on this Forum. My sincere good wishes and a belated Happy New Year to you all.

Northwood.

Welcome to Western Thunder. Your Model of 47501 reminds me that as a young lad in the early 60s I used to ride on the Footplate of 47500 the Bletchley Station Pilot Engine. I've had a Connoisseur Jinty Kit for a number of years that I should really get on and have a go at building!!

Welcome aboard!

I note you’ve already cottoned on to the "share photos of your stuff" rule! I hope you find the time to share more with us as your empire is rebuilt.
