I started my garden railway back in 2004 when I treated myself to a LGB starter set. Unforchantly photos from the early years where lost and these photos start in 2007 when I had a up and running railway in the garden.

Early days I was much on my own, doing things that I thought were right, but was often not, learning through your mistakes

That Starter Set grew well, Steve. :admire: :thumbup:
 
I had been hoping you would start posting a pictorial record of the Nutbrook on here. Please keep up the good work.
 
2008 and the first major extension took me round the back of the shed and down the right hand side of the garden. A three road station was built

Thanks Guys
