Trains in the garden ?

Oh yeah! 

I'd love to see an emerald night go through that loop, with half a dozen carriages in tow

That would be sacrilege!

Imagine the cost these days of 10194 plus 5 extra carriages relative to the couple of 60051 sets that were needed!

And as you can see from the fails video, many rebuilds and broken parts were sustained just to get one shot!

Think of the poor train windows!

To be honest, I would want to see that too! :sweet:

Hi,

My Trains are driving in the garden. This is a (bad) vid of the testtrack some years ago on selfmade rails. worked well. Now the layout is longer... about 30meters. Can show some pictures if wanted...but its not so good like the bernina line, which is shown here.

Nice.  What type of rails and ties did you use to make the tracks?

The rails are aluminium profile 8x8mm, cnc machined by myself. The ties are oakwood, also cnc machined. These parts are fixed by rollpins (?).
