Hi everyone,
First let me wish everyone a Happy & Prosperous New Year. I'm Simon Busby and I reside in the City of Cape Town, South Africa. I model North American railroads in HO scale, with my favorite railroad being the BNSF. I don't have a layout at present, so I spend my time building dioramas. I'm also into photography & videography
Cheers, Simon

WELCOME to the gang

HI Simon and Welcome!
Look forward to reading your posts. Lots of good people on board this train.

Howdy to the other down under. I built many a locomotive for South Africa ( worked at GE for 38 years.) Does anyone down your way model the early GE's and EMD exported down there ?
Welcome aboard, Simon. South Africa has always been a fascinating country to me and one I still have on my list to visit. How did you get interested in North American trains and decide on the BN as the one you wanted to model?
Welcome, thats a long ways away. Do they have many trains in the cape?
Welcome look around and you will learn many things
Good to have you with us, Simon. I think you'll like it here.
Thank you
Thanks for the welcome guys, it is much appreciated.
Hi there Josh, nice to see a familiar name.
Jim, you ask how I came to model NA railroading, it's a long story, so let's just say it was an evolutionary process
Cheers, Simon
