    Blimey! that was quick Toto.

    I'm still trying to fill in where I live etc. :avatar:

    For those who already know me :hismiley:.............................

    and for those that don't :hismiley:.

    I'm Ed and attempting an excuse for a small OO gauge layout in part of a (currently very cold) garage.

    Started out as a late 50s early 60s mainly steam loco type layout, but I've recently turned to the dark side with the purchase of a couple of diesels and now two AC locomotives.

    Currently attempting to scratchbuild something that will pass as catenary, so that the AC locos don't look too daft on the layout.

    Hi again Ed. Welcome from the depths of depravity (weather of course) here in Plymouth. 50mph winds and tipping it down. No birding today methinks. Looking forward to catching up when you are ready.

    Hi Guys.

    I'm just trying to put something together about Lattons Fields so that anyone that already may have read some of it won't be bored to tears, and anyone who hasn't read about my paltry efforts can an idea of what I'm doing.......................

    so then they can tell me :confused:

    Hi Pete, Ian, Gary, still finding my way around.

    Haven't found Matt's big red button yet [​IMG]

    So far, noticed that once you've read a topic you get a 'camp fire' type icon against the title :scratchchin:

    It's been averaging 9[sup]0 [/sup]in the garage since Christmas, so nothing done on the layout and I could really just use one of your northern thermometers Paul:avatar:
