Hi everyone, I've been lurking in the bushes so to speak, for a few day's now. This forum of your's is like a breath of fresh air to me especially compared to the last one I joined, which despite it's "friendly" title felt more like an exclusive club....when the "Irish" jokes started it was time to leave! I started collecting these little things just after my 48th birthday at the end of feb, and so far I have nine, Fleischman's (135/2, and 125/4),Wilecso's (D45?, and D18), Doll's (364/2, and a very old 33?. I also have two Stuart's awaiting boiler's and other shiny things, plus a large incomplete Marklin.
