I'm sorry to hear of your health problems - fingers crossed here that you get the all clear after the treatment! At least you can still get some enjoyment from the railway modeling albeit at a diminutive N gauge!

Hi Fatso, nice to hear from you again. I sincerely hope you make a full recovery from your cancer but you certainly have the right attitude to go forward. I actually like n-gauge railways as you can get som much more of an interesting layout into a small space and nowadays the trains are almost as detailed as OO.

Anyway take it easy and keep in touch.

And from me, I hope you make a good recovery Mike, at least you have the right mindset to keep doing the models to take your mind off things. I have seen some cracking N Gauge Railways so there is no reason why you can't enjoy these as much as the bigger versions.

Regards.....Mark
