Kent & North Wales Light Railway
Kent & North Wales Light Railway
Another new boy (at least in this section), here a link to my indoor live steam layout, the Kent & North Wales Light Railway, a 16mm layout based in my cellar here in Alsace, France, with two loop of track, once of which dual gauge 32/45mm.

New night time photos of buildings on the K&NWLR
Long exposure times make for "day for night" conditions on the Kent & North Wales Light Railway, but here are some pics of some new (and some old) buildings that have now found their way onto the K&NWLR.

The K&NWLR finally finds time to post some more videos in the forum, including some of the new buildings at the harbour and an attempt to recreate a little bit of Portmeirion in North Wales.

K&NWLR: New videos with views of tree planting and harbo
New video of a Regner "Vincent" making its way through Kent, passing the newly planted trees before crossing the bridge to North Wales and following the harbour branch line past the new warehouses, with a view of the village of Portmeirion in the background above the upper loop with new trees too.

Kent provides a lot inspiration - and I´m there a couple of times a year - but I´ve been on the "continent" now since I was about 18, give or take a year ... so they probably wouldn´t have me back. But I am in touch with 16mm Kent group, who seem like a nice bunch.tom_tom_go:63960 wrote:Great stuff. It's a shame you don't live in Kent, UK
Cheers,

K&NWLR: Longer video with complete view of line and 2 lo

This is a reverse cab view on the upper loop of the K&NWLR looking back at a Regner "Willi" Challoner style freelance loco, taking several trips around the complete circuit with a chance to see the layout as a whole, and glimpses of a Regner "Vincent" pulling a train of slate wagons on the lower loop below.

Re: Kent & North Wales Light Railway
What a great layout, how do you keep your cellar free from damp from the live steam and also keep the air fresh ?kandnwlr:62823 wrote:Another new boy (at least in this section), here a link to my indoor live steam layout, the Kent & North Wales Light Railway, a 16mm layout based in my cellar here in Alsace, France, with two loop of track, once of which dual gauge 32/45mm.

K&NWLR: Ventilation
To be honest, since the area is 14m x 6m, the little water vapour that comes out, is probably fairly easily absorbed by the air. Up till now there have been no problems, and since there is still no door to the rest of the cellar, ventilation (CO2, CO) doesn´t seem to be a problem. I know however that friends who have meths-run gauge 1 in a cellar have trouble with their eyes after a while.

K&NWLR
Many thanks! Been on your website. And you´ve got me wondering where I could site a stationary steam engine on my layout!benchmark:69458 wrote:Wonderful, just wonderful.
Thank you for visiting.
A steam donkey engine or a steam crane maybe? that will blend in very nicely

K&NWLR: Investment planning?
Thanks for these. I´ll have to start thinking about a steam crane, as there´s not much logging around the K&NWLR for a donkey.benchmark:69462 wrote:Thank you for visiting.
