Young Noob Train Enthusiast Says Hello
Hello all
I am a 23 year old train enthusiast,I just started filming and taking pictures of them yesterday, because i got only just got a new camera. As you can guess my favourite trains are freights, i just love when they come whizzing past at such high speeds, they are also quite nice looking. Although my name may give you the impression i know alot about trains, i know diddly squat tbh  .(I don`t suppose anyone can give me a good website to learn about them or tell me on here about the basics i.e how to work out what a class is etc, to save me starting a new thread?) I look forward to sharing my experiences,video,and knowledge *cough* i mean photos with you   Cheers Last edited by Freight Train Freak; 9th May 2013 at 01:32.

Hello and welcome to the Forum. You've come to the right place as it's a very friendly Forum and there is a huge amount of knowledge available here. In terms of what class a locomotive is, it's usually quite easy because the locomotive number tells you: 56 XXX is a class 56, 66 XXX is a class 66 etc. but as I say you'll get loads more information from the very knowledgeable members on this Forum. I know there are several who are freight fans and take photos of freight trains. Look forward to reading your posts.
