We are are up and running!!!  :howzit:

For those that don't know me yet, I'm Ed from Panorama, Cape Town. I have lived in England, Ireland and the USA. I have also ridden trains in all those countries. I prefer South Africa Railways, the pre-Transnet version. :thumb:

I model N scale and a few N gauge - yes, there is a difference! :innocent:

Hope to see plenty familiar faces around. :thumb:
