As one who shall remain nameless said "I hope you're going to post something worthwhile for your 2000th post" I thought I would introduce myself.
I actually registered with the forum in May 2006 and, like many others, lurked for a few months before making my first post in September 2006.
I have been interested in anything with wheels on since birth according to my parents, and it is rumoured that I was born to the sound of a Bulleid pacific passing the bottom of the garden. I received my first trainset, a Triang clockwork, for my fifth birthday in May 1963 and have never looked back since.
Since that first set i have dabbled in Z, N, TT, HO, OO, and O both standard and narrow gauges. I hve now settled on HO but unlike most other modellers on the forum I have decided to model the British scene (Yes I am mad).
As most of you probably know I am the scenics man on St Laurent and assist dbclass50 with Euroscale.
Living alone as I do (apart from Buzz the stupidblack cat - destruction of scenery a speciality) I have plenty of time available for the hobby, it's just a pity I have to go out and earn a living.
Regards
