Hello
This is the startings of my 5' gauge garden layout for the garden. The line is still in the contruction stages-with the opening planned for Easter this year(it will be tight!!!)
So far I have two locos-one out of action after the control board developed a fault(should be fixed soon), but still one is operating and I am now starting to lay the track etc which is very exciting!! Photos of my line can be found at www.freewebs.com/brackendalebranchline . When I get time I shall transfer them onto this thread.
I shall post more photos as I progress.
Look forward to your comments.

Hi Paul,
The line came out at the weekend and here are a few photos. At the moment only a few pannels are constructed but by Easter I hope to have a run of about 35m.

Oh by the way- forgot to mention the line is portable since there are other users of the garden!!!  |
