Garden Railway Forum

I must go and purchase one thanks for the heads up.

Jim they look great nice job on the doors.

A fine job on the shelter thanks for sharing.

A super picture daan wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy new year.

Thanks to everyone for all your advice on topic I posted and my plan is to use treated timber with boards covered with roofing felt.

Hi john that plastic decking looks really great and the best thing is it won't be harmed by the elements, will keep an eye on your progress.

Jim its a shame you had to redo the doors but if your not happy then you would know and see the faults. These doors look great Jim with the air vents and louvres.

The detailing in your modeling is pure brilliance please keep your pictures coming. One never tires of looking at these modeling photos.

Hi Daan excellent work on building these two lovely locos. I like your layout the way it snakes through the rocks and follage.

Hi Tom I have not been a member of the forum for long but I'm so pleased I found this forum and this great hobby. So I would like to say a Merry Christmas to all the forum members and 2018 is a good year.

Thanks daan for layout advice I was toying with the idea of laying roofing felt to the raised layout boards to protect them.

Thanks Dwayne for explaining your layout to me all the responses are helping a great deal.

Thanks Jim I might purchase the high pressure safety valve can I replace the whistle with the safety valve and replace the original safety valve with the water top up valve. Sorry for all the questions.

Sorry Jim my mistake I meant the whistle and not the safety valve also will it be worth upgrading the safety valve with an uprated one from dream steam.I will rectify this.

Hi I've been looking to upgrade some parts on my MSS engine and have noticed that Dream Steam have a water top up valve for MSS engines. Can I replace the whistle with the top up valve.

Brilliant weathering affect thanks for the advice.

A great man cave Dwayne a lovely place to hide away.

Watched the latest coastal railway program with Julie Walters I did enjoy the loco parts of the program but the rest was rather drab.

Hi James I love the colour of your railcar it looks great on your line and you have done a great job in the battery compartment, I'm sure through time small and more powerful batteries will be available.

If I were younger a ground level railway would be possible but with the job I do my back, knees and neck are a little shot so a raised layout is going to be built.
