    Hi, thanks for the welcome. Main gauge is 00 and there is a start to the layout in the attic but central heating repairs have priority at present. I'll find a suitable avatar asap, been a while since I was on a forum so looking forward to seeing the different ideas. My background is electronics and computers, other hobbies include amateur radio and photography but I need to start modelling the railway now the dark nights are here. I was thinking about a garden railway with 0 gauge but mobility not really good enough for that so I may have some bits and pieces to pass on if any interest, need to find them first!

    G'day Harbottle,

    Welcome aboard from Sydney. You will find a friendly bunch of like minded modellers here who have one thing in common, and that's to build a better railway ! Plenty of information here to harness and if there is anything you don't know or unsure about, just ask. An answer isn't too far away. I'm sure you would have plenty to share with all of the members. Enjoy your stay, the camaraderie and the banter that is P1MRC.

    Cheers, Gary.

    Thanks for the welcome, I'll start and sort things out now Xmas has gone. Think I may have some 0 gauge that is surplus as I don't have the room as the plan was for garden railway and sell off the 00 until i saw just how much 00 I had! I sold some 00 rolling stock to Australia some time ago, might even have been Dublo come to think of it.
    I also repeat myself in posts apparently when I am late with the meds... D'Oh...
