Fred Lewis (aka the Welsh Wizard). By profession I am a full time train driver and a passed steam driver and fireman for EWS. I have been railway modeling for over 35 years but for the last 10 years or so mainly in 7mm finescale, virtually all of the loco's and rolling stock I have built have been from many of the varied kit manufactures that are on the circuit with some addition of details or level of scratchbuilding to re-address the prototype modeled.   I am also a member of the "O"Gauge Guild and also ALSMR from which I have personally drawn a great deal of help. I have demonstrated at many of the shows up and down the country for both associations and many area groups which gives me the chance to talk to a varied number of people with varied railway modeling interests and different ideas. All of the models that you see throughout these pages have either been built, painted and lined or weathered by me, in some cases all three and are headed as such. There is also a section of photo's of my day job, so to speak, from the different locations that my job takes me to including steam work and the loco's.
