Hello from Alberta Canada

KJC:
I spent 50 years working as a machinist, millwright, spent a few years in design and drafting and a few years in Quality, Thanks to Covid I was retired at 66. I have always been interested in Model trains, but also had an interest in Miniatures, so I set up a small shop with a Taig lathe, and a Sherline mill, recently I got interested in steam, remember very well the old steam strains growing up in Britain, So I am looking into making some smaller engines, suitable to make on my small machines.

Welcome to the  group!   My machines are Sherline, others here have them and Taig too.

petertha:
Welcome from Calgary, Alberta. Where in the province are you located? I'm not into steam myself but I am aware there is a track near Airdrie with like minded hobbyists.

KJC:
I am in Leduc

petertha:
I'm loosely associated with a (small) group called AMEN out of Edmonton. Have you heard of them? I stumbled on them through a mutual member friend & attend Zoom meetings initiated/continued through pandemic. They meet in informally monthly & have a few gatherings planned. The contact info here (Ron).
