Just would like to ask, where did you get these locomotives from? I'm thinking of building my own railway img in my garden.

Hi Oliver, most of the locos in the video are from Roundhouse Engineering and Accucraft, but our members do run a whole range of different manufacturers' locos - or indeed ones they have built themselves. A whole lot more info in our "Guide to 16mm Scale Modelling
" - see www.16mm.org.uk/publications/the-guide-to-16mm-scale-modelling/

Hallo. Supervisor 👍 🤝

[@davedemaine7192]

Very nice this is what garden railways are about just running trains.
Wonderful.

Absolutely superb video!! Thank you

Nice ride!

Hullo. Do many individuals build permanent 16mm/SM32 live steam indoor layouts to finescale standards; complete with railway furniture, scenery, prototypical running etc? It seems, to me, to be a scale that owes itself to this form of modelling yet I rarely ever see people model 16mm/SM32 anywhere other than the garden. When I'm a little older, with a place of my own and with a bit more financial security, I'd love to build a permanent indoor layout depicting a Welsh narrow gauge scene. Alas, until then....

There are some, certainly - though as you say outdoor operation would be the most commonly seen. Space can be an issue for 16mm indoors, though some amazing compact layouts do exist.
Two pointers for investigation would be to our modular layout group (facebook.com/groups/223143094789671), as a good way into indoor layouts without having to find the space for a whole layout yourself! And to the Kent and North Wales Light Railway (facebook.com/kandnwlr) as a particularly stunning example of what you're thinking about.

With this being the age of the train, what then would you say is the train of the age?

[@pro52020]

Wow is that used with real steam?

[@richardhuss]

Yes, many of our members run real live steam model locomotives.
