Nice pictures there Pauly

You may have read in the other place that I was givin up the G scale after 30 years at it...........................well that was not quite true

Watch this space as they say!! :o
 
Great pics Pauly, the moss? growing over the track really gives it a sort of light railway/ tramway look!
 
Pauly, Very nice pictures indeed. I like the track work with the overgrowth , it makes it look as if the line has been in ages. Tell us about the tram. Do I see a filler for an alcohol burner peeking out of the door ? Looks great.

sorry to disappoint you but its a battery tram, you can get them as kits from ip engineering.

I have this 1 made by a fellow forum members who upgraded it with a USAtrains chassis and 1 that I intend to build myself but just havent gotten round to it yet.
 
Glad to see the tram getting some use Pauly. In case you're wondering, the numbers are from a 00 gauge 9F, the only ones I had at the time!
 
I did see the numbers and thought they helped finish the engine. Didn't even think of 9Fs

I believe it's known as 'Baby's Tears' and it is quite popular with Garden Railway modellers Steve.

However, it can be quite invasive and needs to be kept under control.

Mole gave me a small plant last year, and it has grown in my 'Fleur de Lys' blocks at an astounding (or is that alarming) rate....
 
Cheers Gizzy , hope your feeling better

Well if I did it wouldnt be the first!! I had one a few years back at the old address, around a rockery around 15 to 18' diameter circle basically with a couple of loops, it was fully catenary fitted and it worked well, I did post some old scanned pics on the other forum but I have deleted them now.

And a red box did arrive today courtesy of eBay Nuff said for now!!!! :thinking:

And do watch the Baby's Tears plant we planted a tiny pot of it, within 2 or 3 years it was everywhere and it really became a problem!!

I have to attack mine quite regularly with expensive hair scissors otherwise it completley takes over and stops me running trains.

Yep, that's another name for it. No offence taken!
