CMES Garden Railway. A short history.
Hi, As I have been making a bit of a record of replacing the raised track of the Cardiff Model Engineering Society garden railway that had been destroyed by a bough falling from a tree. I realised that the CMES had had a garden railway for over 23 years and I thought it might be an idea to put toget...

Re: Point Operation
Hi,
Some years ago I made some remotely operated points using rods and 'U' nails connected to a hand operated lever. The system still allowed trains to run through and switch the points themselves. a video of the prototypes might be found interesting.

Re: Peco gauge 1 track
Hello again Paul,
Sorry, I forgot to mention it is only the ground level track that uses Peco G1 track, the raised track uses Peco G45.

Playing with model steam locomotives in 1989
Hi,
I came across this short old video made by a friend of our first 16 mm scale model railway known as Rhydypenau Light Railway and back then 16 mm layout were fairly rare. The locomotives are; an R/C Merlin Maestro, a Mamod and Toucan a modified Mamod.
