Garden Railway Forum

Thanks to Lonsdaler, for picking the next theme, which is:
Garden Railway Architecture - Any buildings, so long as they are part of a garden railway.

We have seen some lovely buildings over the years, so no excuses!

OK, here we go:


I always wanted a working water tower for my 5" gauge layout.
Most German ones of the right (small) size are of brick construction or have a spherical tank. Some even have an inverted sphere at the bottom.
This was way to complicated for me to build.

After much research I found the perfect prototype: a Badenian flat-bottomed steel tank.
It takes 70 litres of water.

LINESIDE and TOWN ARCHITECTURE

Scrat, I must say it's nice to see buildings like that in the larger scales.

Really looking forward to seeing the entries for this one. Details are always fun to pour over.

Not a lot of detail on this one, but here's mine.

Now thats a novel idea. We all tend to go for pristine buildings, but I love this.

The first building I made for my railway was an abandoned pottery - the original "raison d'etre' for my line. Pic below, but not eligible for this quarter's competition.
