Hello everybody

I,m ozzie from Leicester, ive been squatting on the forum for a few weeks now and thought it about time i introduced myself.

Im 43 and have had an interest for the live steam ever since some of my friends had the models when i was younger, but never took the extra step to get one until recently. ( only took me 30 odd years   )

Also love travelling on old trains on holidays and fairs, especially when at butlins minehead with the family.

I will start putting some pictures up of my engines soon.

Catch you all laters
Ozzie
