Garden Railway Forum

My main interest would be with the NG railways of Ireland, north & south, but I found the Festiniog guide fascinating! Although I'll admit that my railway has inspirations from a number of NG railways in the British Isles. If ever there's a guide to the Clogher Valley Railway, there'll have to b...

Joined the group!

I'm 45 mm, which is close enough to 3 ft gauge for me!

Are they available in 45mm gauge?

The web shop has now re-opened to sell the remaining stock... The home page contains the line "It is possible that the Brandbright range be continued by a successor and if so news of this will be posted here" - a glimmer of hope??? I don't think that was there before, maybe there's a deal...

Hi

I'm enquiring if anybody knows where I could get gears/chains and sprockets for my locos?

Thanks

Hi

What makers of non working 16mm head & tail lamps are there? With brackets.

Thanks

Having family roots in Donegal, I always say you can never have enough railcars!

And Merry Christmas from the other side of the Irish sea!

Replacement boiler also available from Dream Steam who now have them made by Cheddar Valley Steam (most of the IP Jane boilers were made by Cheddar Models). What is wrong with the current boiler?

Is it possible to buy a replacement boiler for a Jane loco?

Thanks

Does creosote, new and old recipe react with LGB track? I'm told that it will melt the plastic.

Thanks

I'm afraid that line had a very short life indeed, I think it was taken up not long after the series was filmed, and John is not in the hobby at all now as the religion he took up prohibits him from having hobbies... :roll: That series, and in particular the EHLR is the main reason I'm into garden ...

I've been asked by my local railway preservation society on my thoughts of a 16mm line being established on the premises. Am I right in thinking that the Severn Valley has something similar? I know the Tallylyn has. Could any members who have experience of this please contact me with any thoughts? T...

Hi

I was looking at the GRS website, and it seems the 16mm box cab diesel loco body has been discontinued.

It looked a bit like this one
