Bonjour !

Beynac · 21 Jun 2017

Hello,
My name is Pierre and I live in France. I want to play with G scale trains but unfortunately I'm a real newbie in this scale. I must learn a lot and this forum seems to be the right place. Anyway, I'm very proud to be a new member of this forum. Regards,
Pierre

Welcome, Pierre, from the UK! For G scale, this is the place to be.

Hello...welcome to the mad house

Welcome to GSC, Pierre, you'll get a lot of help and advice here (plus some less-helpful bits of rather British humour sometimes!).....

Anything you want to know, just ask and someone will come up with the answer for you.

Jon.

Welcome Pierre! Although we don't take ourselves too seriously, it's never PLAYING with trains

.

Welcome, Pierre.

Welcome.

Beynac · 22 Jun 2017

Thank you all for your warm welcome. I just want to play with my trains. I'm not going for realism and I'm not a rivet counter (mostly because I only have ten fingers

).

Zerogee · 22 Jun 2017

Don't worry, I think that any rivet-counters on here were scared off years ago, or their heads exploded when they saw things like 1/29 scale American locos pulling 1/22 European wagons (that sort of thing is just fine with most folks on here). There are some people here who only like to run the "correct" trains on their layouts, and that is fine too, there is room here for everyone!

We all "play trains", it's just that we try to fool people (and sometimes ourselves) by saying we're "running", "operating" or the old favourite, "testing".....!

Jon.

Welcome Pierre!
Funny things happen on the Forum..
We like pictures, as well. So feel free to post some once you start 'playing'!

welcome, Pierre.

jump right into your train interest and learn as you go.

what trains, etc. do you like and wish to pursue?

ge_rik · 24 Jun 2017

Bienvenue Pierre. Not sure if Beynac is where you're from, but it's a beautiful town.

Hello Pierre, welcome to the forum. Playing with trains is a delight that more should take up.
