Good morning All,

Finally registered after years of looking I decided it was time to get a bit more involved! I am a Rail Engineer and volunteer on Welsh Narrow Gauge railways as well – and 7 1/4 loco owner too.

Best wishes,

Rich

Welcome to this excellent forum Rich. I must admit that I'm more road vehicle than rail but there are bound to be other members along soon.

Richard, which bit of the Midlands are you in ? May be useful to know if you are searching for something one day. Chris.

Welcome! Whatever part of the Midlands you are from.

Grew up and started work in the West Midlands, but have been in East Anglia for many years.

You'll find the Forum interesting, not to say addictive.

LOTS of info to be found on here!
