    Thank you Paul for the very warm welcome!
    The first I knew of Platform 1 was when I spoke to fellow exhibitor Chris Lord at the Thornleigh Model Railway Exhibition. I am glad to have found out about it, and feel it is a good place to be. My interests are primarily Narrow Gauge. I build in On18, On30, 1/35n2 and Gn15. I love building microlayouts which I find very addictive. I took my On30 micro Hoyt-Clagwell Tractor Factory layout to Thornleigh, and was very pleased with the positive public and modeller interest. Thank you for having me. I promise to behave :)

    G'day Geoff,

    Great to see you here. You will find a great bunch of guys on here and also a goat ! A little like your cow on the tractor factory ! All I can say is that it is great to have a modeller of your calibre on board. Your Hoyt Clagwell Tractor Factory layout was my personal favourite of the show. I kept telling your daughter how impressed I was with it. You'll find pics of it in the Thornleigh thread.

    Enjoy the forum.

    Cheers, Gary.

    Hi Gary, thank you for the kind words. My only regret from the weekend was that I was on my own for most of the Show and didn't get much chance to take in the other layouts. Your Industry Lane however looked great! http://www.click

    :gday::hismiley:and :welcome: to Platform1 Mr Potter

    Great to have you aboard Geoff
    I see you have settled in already with one layout thread up and running.:thumbs:

    Geoff there is a great bunch of friendly modellers here on Platform1 and with you aboard we just added another :worship: like you were all just interested in enjoying our little bit of this great hobby and helping others find there way with this or that by posting how we go about our own modelling.

    You may have seen HC got a wrap in the Thornleigh post already I'm sure everyone is going to really enjoy your style of modelling and unique model railways :tophat:

    Again a big Platform1 :welcome: Geoff
