    Hi Paul and fellow modellers

    I have been modelling ho scale for quite a while now and have only recently stepped out to start showing layouts. Have made plenty for others but now working on my own... Have thrown a couple of pics up in the gallery for all to see.

    I'm looking forward to being involved in your community as I spotted you guys at Liverpool...

    I'm also and old school brush Signwriter which comes in handy for the fine work, anyhow I look forward to being in touch and thank you once again Paul for the warm greeting...

    Brett

    G'day Brett0422,

    Great to see another Sydney based member onboard with us, so 'welcome aboard'. From the pics you have posted, it looks like the railway is going through an extension. Looking forward to finding out more about you and your layout. So settle in, have a good look around, read up, but most of all, just enjoy forum and the banter that is P1MRC. The '422' on the end of your name, is it a reference to the NSWGR 422 Class ?

    Did you attend the Sydney Model Railway Exhibition ??

    Cheers, Gary.

    Thank you Gary and Ian for the warm welcome, the layout is going through major extensions.... There is a vast assortment of animals, birds and people, tradies to clowns, there's even a nudist beach and homeless people, not to mention dr who's tardis... I will open a page to show from start to now and the continuation...
