Hello back at ya' from "Up Over"! (?)
Geez there's getting to be enough from the land of Oz for a sub-group here... LOL
Pics and videos are always welcome!
 
Welcome aboard Alan.

I used to live in SA when I was young, out in Salisbury. I imagine it has changed a bit over the years. I live in Brisbane now.

What is your prototype?

Best Regards, Paul

Hi Alan and welcome!

I'm from the outskirts of Melbourne, Vic and finding MRR forums very a friendly and informative place. Good to see a few more Aussies doing US railways! When you get around to it, tell us a bit a about your modelling era.

We are in Adelaide.

Will be doing a detailed post on the layout shortly.
Just ironing out a few inherent bugs I have found, abeit only minor ones.

As to doing US Railways, well not entirely.
I do have a few US of A Loco's and reefers etc but also like Pommy
rolling stock as well. Definitly have a thing for GWR.

To that end I have decided to do a "Presrevation Railway", that way I can justify the different types of rolling stock found on the layout,
but more of that later......

Best Regards

Alan
 
G'day Alan and welcome to the site. You will find a lot of good info here.

We must be getting close to taking over this site soon:D:D:D:D

By the way hope the Crows and Power go better next year - but they don't beat the Lions:eek:

Tar Bob,

No dont have any "Crows" :D on the layout and working on the wiring so there are no "Power" :D issues to the track or lighting.
Spose I could put in a Safari Park then could justify some "Lions" :D

Better stop doing that hey... :):)
