Re: The start of my garden railway

Hi Aaron I love your little garden railway and your dad is great to learn things from. I’m aiming to have an oval layout about the same size of your with one siding. With me small is good. :thumbup:

Re: The Candleford Green Light Railway

Paul what a transformation, you have produced a splendid garden layout. I like how you have used the half logs to finish the edging of the layout. I was thinking about using a course of breeze blocks but then I saw how you have built your layout. I look forward to seeing your garden layout progress....

Re: Track advice

Hi Paul thanks for explaining this with me. I think I still might go with 38” radius as it should be fine with my current stock. :thumbup:

Re: ACCUCRAFT L&B OPEN WAGON IN L&BR GREY

Steve’s you have a nice selection of accucraft wagons. I might have a go at building a kit but I think the accucraft wagons look super straight out of the box.

Track advice

I’m planning to use Peco SM32 track on my garden layout. Now when I come to building the curves do I use 30” or 38” radius or either as I’m planning on running a Roundhouse Millie and Accucraft L&B wagons.
Any advice will be greatly appreciated. :thumbup:

Morning I was wondering if any forum members have used Accucraft wagons. I am asking this as I’m going to purchase the ACCUCRAFT R19-1E L&B OPEN WAGON IN L&BR GREY from trackshack this week.
