Hi all. Great to be here.!

After a hiatus of over 55+ years, I've started a new layout.  So, essentially I'm a newbie to this.  Layout is 'ad hoc' but Hornby 00 Gauge, with several loops, with so many sets of points and power track.

I bought 2 sets, one the Industrial Freight R1228, the other, The Flying Scotsman. R1167. I've also bought a rake of extra track to add to these sets.  I was over rather over ambitious, so have about 20 - 3rd curves left over.

I'm just in the process of wiring the power tracks, of which there are 7. I didn't want to solder odd bits of wire to the rails or fish plates......so it is what it is.......expensive.!

Anyhow. As an old newbie I'll need lots of help and knowledge.

Welcome on board Stevo

If you are anywhere near Bray this Saturday drop in to Bray Wheelers clubhouse off the Boghall Road, plenty of advice going for free!

Also a load of trains but sadly not free

Thank you.

Not that it's short notice, but travel from the Irish  'outback' is not easy.  Living in the 'back of beyond' has it's disadvantages.
