Newbie here
Hello.
Well after a visit from Mr Cliff Deltic today I was introduced to this forum.
From Nuneaton but also residing in Snowdonia when not working for GBRf.
I recently went over to the darkside of O gauge after being a staunch OO gauge fliddler.
A huge fan of the workings of the Cambrian line to Pwllheli during the late seventies 24’s, 25’s and 40’s and also eighties after Barmouth Bridge reopened with the mass influx of 37’s and freight workings around the midlands.

Re: Newbie here
Welcome Matt
Spent a happy few holidays at Pwllheli and probably the only time I enjoyed time in Wales
Of all the different train operating companies I deal with, it's the GBRf drivers that are the friendliest by far to work with... And going on your confession in the confession thread, perhaps a little too friendly

Good old Cliff. Arm up the back, a few whispered threats and BINGO! New Member appears!
Welcome aboard the Daft Train, Matt. Like Cliff says, have a snoop around, read plenty and ask questions. There are no daft questions.
Enjoy the forum.
