That's an almost perfect GR. Some double track, plenty of stations and passing loops, lots of wiggly track and a sunny spot to sit and watch trains.

Thanks Greg and, as you can see, there is plenty of scope for further development. :D

Your lawn is almost bowling green standard. Mine is, at best, golf course rough.
As Greg says, an interesting track plan. I like the junction for the branchline.

Thanks. There's still lots to do to fully integrate the railway into the garden, especially on the branch line side.
The plan is to eventually have a quarry branch off the branch line and perhaps add a stream, but all of this is someway off.

Perfect-sized layout and already well-integrated.
