Greetings from Ireland

@PatsRailway1 if you want to do a build thread for your railway then it is better in the 'Large scale pictures' section. Others have some great threads on the development of their railways there and this means you can keep your audience as it all will be in the same place. This 'New members' section is really for a 'meet'n'greet'. Thanks.

Kilkenny calling.

Yes, a suitable substitute when the Guinness has run out..... did the chaps warn you about the Colonial humour on here?

Greetings Pat, the bridge is looking good.

Welcome from down here Pat, looks like you have room for expansion

Welcome to the forum Pat, DCC can indeed be complex but if you do not want to faff about with it, things can be as easy as having a Chip Fitted loco and attaching 2 wires to the track.

Good size, not too big and not too small, I'm on half an acre as well, but a young Staffy rules over it at the moment
when she stops chew everything I'll be able to expand out.

Welcome @PatsRailway1, your bridge is coming along nicely. Looking forward to see what railway you end up making. We are on half an acre here too.

Always nice to have room to expand if you can! My largest garden was approx 1/5th of an acres but that was the complete plot including house and front garden. The 150x40 foot garden at the back was plenty enough for my garden railway which was mostly on one side only. Current one 20x80 feet which is plenty but I would like space enough for a nice big wood cabin! Even though I already have 4 sheds!
