Long time lurker saying hello!

Hi all! Long time lurker here, decided to finally create an account here. 

 

I’ve always been a fan of the steam era in Ireland, particularly the GSR/MGWR eras and would love to create a layout based on the old Tramore & Waterford Railway once time/money allows someday!

 

At the moment i’m in the process of making a video documentary on that same railway, but i’ll get more into that in another topic another time, but for now this forum has been an amazing source of information towards that so thought it was about time to say hello!

 

Don’t really have any model trains at the moment save some Lego ones i’ve designed and some old Hornbys back at my parents house collecting dust in a box somewhere. Never done scratch/kit building before but would love to get a J26/E Class kit and try my hand at that. Or maybe just getting an LNER J72 and converting that into a J26 as I’ve seen a few people do to good results on this forum.

 

But mainly for now just wanted to say hello and stop watching from the shadows and get involved haha. Thanks for having me!
