My Garden Railway still to built
It's been quiet about my garden railway for some time.
The earthwork is finished, and most of the track is laid.
For the background of my garden railway, I decided to resurect my abandond Isle of Skye Railway theme, which I used for my modular N scale layout. I have now discovered that when a railway system have been built on the Isle of Skye it would be a narrow gauge railway. My Isle of Skye Railway runs from Armadale via the small hamlets Kilbeg and Kilmore to Loch nan Uamh. In my fictious history
there is a rare mineral mined for the high quality steel production.
Loch nan Uamh Station (some tracks are still missing)
Armadale station in the background
On the oval would be the two halt for Kilbeg and Kilmore
Overview of the garden railway
And now a video of my garden railway

It all depends on whether you can get the old embed code out of YouTube. For this posting I went to your video, clicked Share, then clicked Embed and the Use old embed code option was there. Copied the old embed code & pasted it in this posting (Note: you will not see the video in Preview). In the past I've found you will not get the old embed code option if you are Logged In to YouTube.
If you do not get the old embed code there is a more involved method discussed in this Topic on Page 2 - http://gardenrails.myfreeforum.org/ftop ... -embed.php

A few pictures of my recent work for my garden railway
First I applied some accesoires on my small diesel loco and the brake van.
On the loco I placed some loco lamps of an old Faller E-Train loco, to simulate a simple headcode for goods trains on my IoS Railway.
I also put some vacuum pipes at the ends of the loco.
During the holidays I scratchbuilt a kind of Conflat wagon for Less then a car load traffic. I used a Faller E-train/Playtrain wagon chassis as base. The removable cases are also from Faller Playtrain range.
I also put a brake standart from a disused LGB wagon and glued it in my Andel Brake van which I received last summer.
And last but not least I built a flat wagon from an Andel Models kit I received yesterday, about three weeks late for my wife to present it to me for christmas.

Re: My Garden Railway still to built
Hello,
it's been quite a while since my last post here. In the meantime I have moved two times, and got divorced. But now I've settled in my new home (house). And I'm planning on a new garden railway. More about in the near future. But today I made a christmas update about my model railway projects.
