Title: Old hat for you !!
Post by: TimR on December 31, 2018, 11:33:36 AM
But not for me !!

Having never seen or handled an N gauge loco (or anything else) try to imagine my surprise/shock/pleasure when I opened my first Graham Farish loco the other morning.

It was/is a 57XX Pannier Tank and wow just wow, a work of art in miniature, next up was another Farish, this time a 61XX Prairie Tank and again wow, they are both superb in every way, I had wondered about the level of detail and I have to say I'm very impressed.

I have ordered a Kato unitrack M2 set just to get me up and running and I can't wait, it's like a 2nd childhood but better  :D please tell me that the pleasure never wears off.

The pleasure never wears off. :D

But the bank balance has a habit of decreasing, some say (well, my wife says) exponentially! ;D

Welcome to the wonderful world of N Gauge, and this superb Forum.

As @daffy (https://www.ngaugeforum.co.uk/SMFN/index.php?action=profile;u=5634) says, the pleasure never wears off but the bank balance does fall!  :worried:
