Nice railway, blends in well with the garden. Anything to do with the Wendover Light Railway? http://www.wendoverlightrailway.com/

A re-cap from the W&HLR

Post by D7106 » Thu Feb 28, 2013 1:21 pm

Hi. teriibly sorry I haven't replied to my post in such a long time. Firstly, I changed the gauge of my railway to 32mm due to, at the time, a new purchase, which was a Roundhouse Engineering Tom Rolt, and being able to get a longer, and much better scale railway in the garden, without ruining the parents' garden. The first half of my railway starts at Wendover, a small quite villiage with a derilict quarry (In contrast to the real town). This has been placed down, running next to the path, which creates a tramway feel to the line for around 6 metres, with sharp corners to and hostile surroundings to a large junction/marshalling yard. :lol:
Then from this, back in the opposite direction down a 1 in 15 gradient to Picklefrack, a small termius, which, in the future will lead eadily down hill to a large dock like area dual gauge 32mm and 45mm area with loops ect. The stations at the time of this posting include Wendover, Halton, Weston Turville and Picklefrack (Which is a made up name created in my imagination!) Although, as I promised a track plan was asked, I shall upload one from my new computer.
PS. The horrible solar powered lanterns have gone.

Many Thanks
