Hello everyone 
My name is Renee, I am the partner of Paul (Victorian T Gauge), and I am also a fan of Victorian Railways as Paul has taught me so much and I have grown to love it.
I'm quite interested in T Gauge, it's amazing to see trains so small and running! I also love to see the tiny accessories such as trees and people, it just fascinates me.
I dont actually have any of my own model railways as yet, but i do help Paul with alot of his great work and hope to have my own soon.
I joined Talking T Gauge because I enjoy reading and learning, and if I have my own opinions and questions I believe you guys will be a great help!
I look forward to learning and sharing, Renee. |

Welcome, Renee! Now we've got everyone represented: younger, older, and both genders. That's quite extraordinary. I hope we will be able to help you get into T, and I also hope you'll share your progress with us.

I read the topic of this thread and begun to wonder what kind of pageant this was. "...and the Miss Victorian T Gauge 2009 runner-up is....." 
Welcome Renee. As Paul's partner, I guess it would be difficult for you not to develop at least a passing interest in the VR. Like many earlier rail systems, it certainly had its own unique character, much of which is now only history.

Sorry, definitely not the first woman T Gauger.
I am female, but I think that Loconotion who stock T Gauge in the UK have Nicki who I believe beat me to it. |

Pssst! First female T-gauger in Australia - maybe and if so, possibly the first in the southern hemisphere.

Something along this line of thinking might almost be adequate.

Does your wife know about this plan? Or does she just know about the fantasy?

She knows but doesnt agree with the size of it. Believes its too big. 
She tried to tell Paul that she thought it was too big............ of all the people to tell...........
Gotta get a quote and see if it falls within my budget.
