A visit to a friends live steam garden railway

- My own railway is now dismantled so I was glad to visit a friend's very scenic layout for a run with our live steam locomotives. He has scratch built every building and structure that when blended into his lush garden some scenes border on reality.
The scenics are awesome.
Great scenery
Great video! Liz especially looks incredible, as does the line - I hope I can get mine looking that good someday!
very nice , enjoyed
That's a great railway, an absolute credit.
The Dolgoch's valve gears look Accucraft 1/19th scale but
the rail jointe (6:50) doesn't look the scale. Maybe H0 scale?
OK. I saw a glimpse of the boiler backhead inside the cab.
Yes, it's nut (not) H0 but 1/19th Accucraft or 1/13.7th scale Wilson Loco Works?
Hi, I sub to your channel! Why your railway was dismantled? Mine was damaged by wild animals that destroyed tunnels! So I made two diorama for electrical locomotives powered by aerial catenary and for steam locomotives! Cheers Fabrizio - like 187
Hi Fabrizio I have moved house so my railway had to be dismantled but I am building a new one at my new place and will post a video when I am ready. This friends railway in this video is close by so I can run on that.
@@steamon45 Thanks for reply my friend! So we stay in contact and in the next time I will see the new layout in new house, cheers Fabrizio

Luv the real grass edging on the elevated track bases. Thanks for sharing
Actually the grass on the edging is artificial, easy to do and always looks good.
Very nice, thank you
That layout is years of hard work. Very impressive thanks for sharing.
I like how the track is elevated and still provides for balast and scenic elements. What is the sub roadbed made of to allow for that and not warp due to the effects of weather? I would like to do similar, a very good sorce of inspiration!
This layout was built the same method as I did on my track with a mesh base so for how I built mine go to this link and see how I made it. www.mylargescale.com/threads/kitchen-window-to-carport-construction-of-removable-railway-in-a-small-space.88968/?post_id=1143598#post-1143598
That method is pretty slick, thank you! I may do an adaptation of your method, definitely seems more stable. I have hot summers and cold winters, including snow, so I would like to build a track that will last well. Thanks again for your response!
Fun video. Thanks for sharing.
A beautiful line, but 45mm gauge for a classic two foot gauge
Superb
What a wonderful set up. Thanks for sharing 👍👍
Superb layout and equipment! An inspiration indeed. Might I ask the secifics as to the track? Brand, code, etc.? Thank you!
The track is made by Sunset Valley and is code 250, the trains are made by Accucraft except 'Liz" which is made by Wilson Loco Works
Very nice layout. Greatings Frank
More videos are wellcome.
We will do another video but do have a look at my channel for other video's
Yes I do. Cheers Frank
R those Accucraft locos except Wilson's green?
Nice structures n figures.
Thanks, I agree his structures and figures are the best. The loco's are, in order of appearance, the Accucraft L&B 2-6-2 in green, followed by the blue 0-6-0 "Caledonia" an Isle of Man loco by Accucraft , then "Liz" the Wilson loco works 0-4-0 in green and finally the "Sea Lion" 2-4-0 in an olive green made by Accucraft.
@@steamon45 Thank U for ur kind listied
answers. W/o looking close, L&B Prairie
could of been made by Roundhouse.
Yes, you are correct, Rounhouse did make an L&B prairie and I think also DJB Engineering made a few as well but I might be mistaken. Nice locomotives especially lined out in "Southern" livery, glad you liked the video.
@@steamon45 Geat! Three makers did the
engine. It proves the engine is popular. I tend to like Accucraft's bc. the details r better and it has water gauge vs. Roundhse's, esp. the latter's r 2D Laser cut vs. 3D looking. Don't know anything bout DJB's except their fine live steam parts.
Thx!
Lovely. Bet that takes hours and hours of cleaning and maintenance every season!
