Hi all

Hello everyone im Alberta aka James. I've decided to start modelling again after a long period away, the models have come on leaps & bounds since i last had model trains. I've bought a selection of 6 locos to fit the period i model. My main intrest is the Settle & Carlisle i have lived close to Ais Gill since i was a small boy & remember the line in all its glory. My user name is after the Jubilee ''Alberta'' because it was a regular on the line & i remember it very well. I'm planning a layout at the moment which is to be based on the loops at Ais Gill because it is the place i went straight after school as a small boy & have many memorys. I was lucky that my brother was older than me & worked on the railways so i got to see every inch of the line from Leeds to Carlisle but Ais Gill & Kingmoor was always my favourite places to go.

Thanks & merry christmas

James.
