The last one to arrive

[Pirlouit]

Good evening everyone.
Since I haven't found anywhere to introduce myself, I'll do it here.
First of all, I apologize for any grammatical errors, but as I don't speak English well, I'm using Google translate.
I am 55 years old, I am Belgian living in France and I have always loved model railways. But I only started in 2016 when I purchased a digital starter set in H0 Roco.
The following year, I discovered the narrow gauge in a French magazine and I fell in love with it. So I started buying rolling stock. I also started a module for the concept of "Croisées de l'étroit" in France. Unfortunately, health problems prevented me from finishing it.
Despite everything, I haven't forgotten the H0 and I also have a few locos, wagons and coaches.
Five years ago, I discovered OO and for several months, I have subscribed to Railway Modeler magazine. Which introduced me to recent and old British railways and especially their standard and narrow gauge modeling. As health has improved somewhat, I am considering starting a layout with a British theme. But that will be for another time. Let's stop this novel for now.
I will present my narrow gauge purchases to you tomorrow.
Just one question: do I have to do one topic per loco or can I present them on one topic?
Sorry for the length of the text, but I have difficulty summarizing.
In the meantime, to wait, here is a little family photo. Not everything is in the photo.

Good evening Pirlouit.

Welcome! That is a good selection of Minitrains locomotives you have there. I am envious of your Bagnall wing tank  loco. I wish I had bought one when they were available.

Regarding where to place and how to structure your posts, some people use a 'my layout' an 'on my workbench' or a 'blog' type format so that the posts are gathered together. See for example some of the posts under the Layouts heading in the Modelling section.
