Garden Railway Forum

Hi all
i was too ill to run trains in the snow this time but here are some photos of some of the trains sofar this year. here is the first train the station cat had seen ..the repaired baguley and taliesin.

Nice set of Spring Sunshine pictures Chris and great to see some of the "casualties" fettled and back in action!
(Nice looking station cat too!)

i think i may have put this in the wrong place??

Well, it's certainly "General Garden Railways", but could be "Photographs" or "Railways and Layouts"
I wouldn't worry about it - I'm sure one of the Mods will move it if they think it's better suited somewhere else

The threat of the secret forum police seems to have the desired effect of scaring everything into behaving
Moved to photographs as it seems to be photograph topic. I daresay it could be moved back if anything of a more "general" nature was put on

run the bagnal 0-4-2t ,lyn  and now wonky wd baldwin. had to see if the wd had bent the chassie  :(  it has not but i don't think to body work will ever look the same .. i did want it to have a whr make over but it is just not worth it with all the bent body work and the state of the wheels

Whatever's wrong with your Baldwin, it may be bothering you more than it needs to. It still looks great in the pictures. Those are really nice engines. I would rather like to have one some day.

The real WDs would certainly have picked up some bumps and scratches during their military service, so I wouldn't worry too much about it! Lyn and the Bagnall are lovely too, you're lucky to have such a wide variety of locos at your dispoal!

yes a wd baldwin with dents is realistic but not for whr 590 maybe i need a second one but can not aford another one


and today a loco which did not see use all last year yeo (it does tend to find all faults with the track, and has to run as a 2-6-0 as it won't go round the bends of my line) it does look so good with the pair of fall length tenmill coaches(these need 6 link chain couplings to go round )

Lyn on my set of L&B shorts ..
