Just an introduction

Post by Phipps »

Hello all.....
My username is Phipps & am certainly a fan of LNER & all things Eastern Regionally related.
I live over here in Northern Norwich but originated from the North East of England in Northern Tyneside.
Just a quick Hello
Proper name is Andrew Phillips but been known as Phipps since I was 14 (was ill when I started my last school at 14,then a pal christened me this by removing the word "ill", hence the Phipps, but I added an extra P).
Glad I sorted that out, cos it takes a while to explain.

I'm on here mainly for info & advice, cos I like renumbering 00 gauge A4s & suchlike................
Thanks & cheers for inviting me in :D

I'll have to look him up. Depends on which part of the city. Im up on the outskirts on the boundaries of Norwich & Hellesdon. The pub quite close to us is actually called The Boundary.

Suggest if you are Norwich based have a nose round for MGNJR relics and routes, a very interesting company with their own works at Melton Constable.
Hi interested in the area served by 52D. also researching colliery wagonways from same area.
