Garden Railway Forum

Hi I’m finally starting to think about my garden line build, I have some 060 live steamers and just wondered what would be the best radius and if the larger size Peco set track would be sufficient? My garden also has a slope so for part of it I was going to build a raised bed, I thought blockwork wo...
