A new member from France

#1

Post by gibet_b »

Hello everybody,

My name is Jean-Baptiste, I'm 42, and nobody is perfect : I'm a Frenchman from France ;-) (so apologize my english, even if I will do my best)

I'm here because I plan to build a british layout (in fact my project is not really classical, but more details in a future forum post), and I have - and will have - a lot of questions about british railway and model railway, even I'm not really a prototypical modeler.

I'm curious about the railroad in general : if in H0 scale, my materiel is french (SNCF), my N scale one is north-american. And I love narrow gauge too...

Apart to be a father at home since my girl is born, and for one year now, my main activity is for my great pleasure to write articles (and make some videos too) for french model railway magasines.

Hi Jean-Baptiste and welcome to our forum.
Most people are shocked when they find out how bad I am as an electrician

Welcome to the forum Jean. I'm Scottish and still struggling with English. :D
