Hi there all,


Im a newbie to the forum.  I have only got into the live steam in the past 6 months(Thought about it for 40 years!)


My current inventory consists of:

Wilesco D395- Remote controlled "Old Smokey"
          D405- Tractor  (currently detailing it)
            D16- just arrived today.
                 -Wilesco logging Trailer.

I am thinking of live steam engines i.e. Mamod or roundhouse /accucraft down the track as well.-( subect to finance i.e. sale of current Ho scale railway ).

Thanks for having me.

I find the Wilesco gear very intoxicating .

Hi and welcome from Perth Western Australia.
I think we must have more QLD members than any other state in Australia now.
