Hello from New Forest

Hello to all from the New Forest,
Hoping to find out more about train sightings so that I can get to the right place at the right time,and not miss things.The number of times I have passed bridges etc with people gathered obviously waiting to see something that they had prior knowledge of its route,leaves me trying to find out more.Been an 'enthusiast' since the old Ian Allen spotter books of the seventies.Dont get to many events or stations,though the occasional visit to Eastleigh happens.May post some pics later once I get to find my way around here....Cheers
