What a lovely charming railway, superb modelling, wow. Thank you to the camera and sound person and producing person, lovely angles and composition. A lovely informative and enjoyable film. A masterpiece, a big thank you, Thanks
To John/Trundlebahn. The railways are 32mm gauge. The locos on the LBR are all Roundhouse, whilst on the PT the steamers are by Salem and Locobox (both no longer available).
I would have liked to have seen what the trackplan is! We have lots of shots of trains going this way or that, but not what happens at each end of the line.
very nice . we americans also have quaint narrow gauge and standard gauge branch lines . i live near one of these called the sierra railroad . :) not all of us can model mailine rrs because of space limitations .
Groan, why do the Americans not look outside the box & demand that railways must have 'Straight Lines'..Its why the British lines are full of charm & character and modelling is the same. each to their own, but long , long straights, Seriously...!?! Give me a British Narrow Gauge any day.....and long, LONG, before the Americans...We do it different over the pond, always have, always will, but you are welcome to copy us..Please, no more comments to straighten our tracks.
I'm in the US and have a garden railway planned and there are both curves and straight track to suit the available space. I mostly model Welsh slate railways in 7/8 scale and hope to start construction next year.
Well, the whole point of narrow gauge railways, apart from cost, is that they are able to negotiate their way into places where standard gauge could not by utilising sharper curves. The appeal of narrow gauge is the contrast from standard gauge practice and their quaintness and charm. A study of prototype examples around the world might have prevented this crass and pretty stupid comment.
@@paulnicoll1791 Manyears ago I worked (volunteered) on a narrow gauge. We made the track perfectly straight and level. Not like mining tracks which are quickly laid to gethe job done and may soon be moved.
Very nice discussion on the simple caricature layout. Enjoyed both layouts.
Thank you.
Beautiful: music, photography, modelling all excellent. Thank you.

Please, when will we see more videos like this? New videos of garden railways like these.

Wow! Such wonderful detail.
Now make thatrack perfectly straight and level.
Thank you.

Excellent video Ian ..Well Done!
The opening shot of a Manx Beyer peacock is really prototipical.
Two grooves in the mud

If my railway ends up half as good as this I will be very pleased!
Very interesting, thanks from Orlando Florida.
allmost perfect, this is art, not a toytrain!!
Thanks for sharing
This has been, I believe, left deliberately vague in order to give an illusion of a line running end to end. In fact, the line is a continuous loop.
The music selection for this video makes me all giddy, haha!
Like the manx loco but 1 complaint. Has somebody from health and safety cleaned up the loco shed
Terrific thanks cheers dennis
precious job !!!
I do a G scale layout It will be a modern up to date version of the Georgetown Loop
Can you tell me the gauge of these lines and the maker(s) of the live steam locos?
Thanks
John
Bit of library music I'm afraid. It's 'Mr. Anderson' - but it probably won't help you much!
Good video, but I had to turn the sound off. It was too distractin.
song?
wow sir
please refer to the posting by shininghappyperson7 ! :-)

dude ian's british...he's my geography teacher (we cant look at him with a straight face) but he's all british boring and all
Not good enough.
Make the tracks perfectly straight and level, like passenger line tracks, not like mining tracks.

As other people have stated
Narrow gauge is slow with a lot of tight curves with no HSTs in sight
