Thanks for sharing that video as I am also interested in this loco if it is produced again. It was mentioned in Feb 2013 SMT that Roy Wood would be producing this again either manual or radio control. I have sent him a mail to find out what's going on as I would like a loco I can just switch on and ...

Lovely looking rolling stock.

The diesel looks the part!

I don't think this coach is finished yet its just my line is lacking line side buildings so I wanted to get it out there quick for the summer.

Maybe once the winter has done its weathering work I will improve (or rather help deteriorate) it some more

I was watching a few of those items on eBay

Glad you are happy with them, good start!

Finally finished this project off: /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0674_zps84f35fc1.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0670_zps1ade451f.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0677_zps33342574.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0679_zps6d834ef0.jpg I know it does not look particularly weather beaten at the moment, however, once the sun and rain...

Thanks Colin.

You can buy them from Cliff Barker at www.cliffbarker.talktalk.net

I use his A.S.A fish plates as well which make fitting Peco track a breeze.

My recent test day went very well with a good turn out from Kent members. The passing loop proved very useful for running two or more trains! Test fitted the point levers I am going to use on the line today: /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0576_zpsd60c3625.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0578_zpsf797d2c4.jpg The base...

I would look at the Regner locos as well for great slow running at a good price.

Sounds different so would be good to see a plan?

You can do one for free using Anyrail software.

I think your Regners David look great as they are.  Your Willi (stop laughing at the back!) loco ran effortlessly yesterday. I was surprised Sam at how the group liked the line given its size and basic design.  I am very glad I added the passing loop as you can easily run two trains with the locos c...

A garden railway.  This is more of a mountain railway!

Very impressive

Thanks for sharing.

Here is a video and a few pictures of the RWLR test day which many Kent 16mm NGM attended and made it a very special and rewarding day for me: Click here for the RWLR test day video /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0504_zps2485d444.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0494_zpse359a534.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0491_zps9d7aa...

Looks good Paul. My gravel combo on my raised line seems to support moss growth well and hopefully I will get more.

Good start Jim

I am glad that you like it Sam

As the line is raised and enclosed there is no reason to glue it in place. I think one of the advantages of garden railways is that you can model using `real world` materials and methods.

We had some sunshine today here in Kent so made the most of it with some ballasting (unfinished): /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0473_zps448e61f0.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0471_zps5f68f19c.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0470_zpse265e15c.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0469_zps2f2d7b8b.jpg /myff/tom_tom_go/DSCN0474_zps5c179...

I got some track work done two days as the sun came out, however, since then we have had rain, cold winds and snow!

Loads of pictures of it if you search Google images.

So the one you can actually buy will not move

Great level of detail Rob.  Is that to fit a RH Bertie?

Also, do you have any more info on your Lady Anne body kit and will it be suitable for coal fired locos?
