Thanks for Welcome

Thanks Norm for the welcome I'm new to pcs and find things a bit difficult to get the hang of and I find this site confusing.I suppose if I keep pressing the buttons things will come right in the end.
Regards Alan [locojoe]

Alan

Do not worry about being a bit lost on here. Everyone on here had to start wondering which 'track' to take to reach their destination.

Just ask questions if you have problems. Somone will stop by and help you through it. This does not just apply to the site, but also the P C itself, I am certain.

Syd (DSY011) was a footplateman in Rhodesia.

We have a few members who are volunteers on the heritage railways.

On a personal note, my Uncle Alan (sadly no longer with us) was a fireman at Hull Dairycoates, finishing his career from Hull Botanic Gardens driving DMU's between Hull and Scarborough. So I've got a little bit of a connection!
