Hello peoples, :wave:
I have just spent £1500 having my small garden gutted so I can build a small model village and railway, will have little people and cars as well. Plan to open to public to raise money for charities, 'cos I'm nice, you see!!
The area for the project is, (I've measured it in old money as my landscaper doesn't "do" metric) 19' x 16' and I plan an end to end, sidings at each end, level crossing. I plan to use LGB since they do have most of the track I need. The only thing I can't seem to find out is whether or not the manual points are live or dead frogs. If live anyone have a quick way of "killing" them?
Tell you what though, I have bought 3 of the BOB building kits from Garden Railway Specialists and they are amazing. I am also a T-Gauge modeller, so used to small modelling. The garden excites me, but will be trouble for me after my stroke damage. However, going to go ahead, and ANY tips at all will be gratefully received, and maybe rewarde after I win the Lottery on Tuesday!!
