underway on my electric loco
Hi everybody. I am here for a while, but I've never really introduced myself. I am very sorry.

Name: Martin
Nickname: Siggi
Age: 25
Location: Underway on electrics
Job: Train driver in Hanover/Germany
Interests exept railway: sleeping and having a long lie-in in bed on days off, bratwurst and beer, playing organ, strawberry pie, thunderstorms
Favourite Classes: Czech class 380, British class 92, German class 155, but commonly electric locomotives all around the world
What’s in my pants pocket: my wallet, and my hands
Where you can find me most often: At work on the loco of various freight trains, then spending a lot of time with my friends, at home in my bed, at church playing the pipe organ, in Munich at the Octoberfiest with a beer mug in my hand, in the Swiss Alps mountains, in holidays abroad where the sun is shining and palms are growing, online ( :rf: ), during thunderstorms in summertime outside taking photos or vids of the lightnings
Most impossble wish: maybe kissing Cheryl Cole :grin:

If you want to know anything else about me or railway things in Germany don't hesitate to ask me...

Hi, welcome to the forums! I used to live in Aylesbury until August 2005 and am hoping to go back soon to see all the changes. I've heard it's become a bit of a dump lately though?
