Hello from Goring

[Fitz Orchard]

So glad to have found this group. Bought a load of LGB/Bachmann etc about 30 years ago while living in US to entertain children and got hooked. Been boxed up in loft for years. Now retired and planning to start again. I am sure I will have lots of questions and this forum looks awesome to access experts. I will be back! Fitz

Yes indeed we are in the Gap and close to Thames.

Hello David. Great to have a kindred spirit nearby. I assume you use GRS in Princes Risborough for supplies? They seem pretty good and always helpful. Fitz.

Wow! I did not expect to find 3 responsive members all within 10 miles (and within about 10 minutes!) Thanks all and sure we will be in contact again.

Welcome to the Forum, Fitz. Do take some pictures of your setup: we  like pictures! Oh, and I'll apologise now for the humour on here. It can be terrible. And on a bad day, it's even worse...
