Garden Railway Forum

Hello Rod., Thanks for the Tip i will try with some photos i wanted to put up.

Mitch

Hello Folks here are the Images,

Sorry about the wait also these are the first images i have posted of the railway running on the forum using my camera.


Hope you enjoy!

Mitch.

Well done Mitch, But they are slightly small. Can you try changing the setting to 1,366px and see how the look and more importantly, if they will load….If not you can always go back to 800px.

By the way, I love your trestle bridge…..

Hello Folks., Here is my Latest Youtube Video on the Tramway, Hope this makes what ive been saying Clear to you guys.

A very interesting line Mitch. Love the trestle bridge. The track on the side opposite the yard does look a bit to close to the edge though for me. But if your happy with it, so am I.

You have loads of scope for expansion too. Great stuff.

Looks good, Mitch. Be good to see it with some trains running.

A video tour of a line with commentary is not something you see often on YouTube so it made a nice change to watch and listen.

Looks to be the makings of a cool little railway. Looking forward to future updates.

Hello Folks Thanks for Your lovely comments Much appreciated!,

Gday Folks., I am Pleased to announce That after 12 months in the construction stage the Cockatoo Creek Tramway is Ready for Opening! Tomorrow (15th December ) is the Opening day where we are running a Fair Few Live steam Locos ,
I have been Getting the horticulture in the Railway and Finishing off the loco shed too and making a cutting with Bluestone walls. Having some Issues with Photos again so I’ll try to post some soon.

Mitch

Brilliant news Mitch.

Take your time with uploading your photos Mitch and try not to get frustrated with it. It will come to you easy after you have done a it a few times...

Gday Folks a Lot has Happened in the Time that i last posted in here, #1 The Cockatoo Creek Tramway has Officially opened ! the Opening Day run was a success to all! #2 I have another loco Now ! a 1995 Bachmann Lyn that my good mate David has given to me ! #3 The CCT is Extending around the back of the Water tank and Joining onto a set of curved points outside the bridge. #4 Robin will be Ordered as a Manually controlled loco before I go on my big Overseas trip On September the 6th.
An Accucraft Edrig Runs past the CCT loco sheds Whilst Cool trains Billy "George" and Fine line models Alfie wait on shed.
Goblin with the Opening Banner.
Hope you enjoy the long awaited photos thanks to Topic Blunder (jake) for helping me with the photos.

Well done Mitch.
I love the shed picture but the 'breaking the banner' is a photo to print out, frame and and hang on the wall!

Congratulations Mitch, a landmark for your railway. There is something very satisfying about the grand opening ceremony to show how your line has developed.
Mine was in August 2013, quite a while ago now, but still well remembered.......

Hello Tom Me and my Dad made the Framework for it and my friend Finished it off for me .

Mitch

Mitch, well done on getting those photos up mate. I love the Banner one. Billy "George" and Alfie are fine looking locos also.

Hope to see more photos of your brilliant work mate.

Congratulations! It certainly looks like all your hard work has been worth the effort...

All the best,
