Bumper Garden Rail issue alert!

 

Ed and Dick may want their layout back.' was the gist of a conversation shortly after the Exeter Garden Railway show in 2003. This left the Severn Mendip 16mm Group with a bit of a problem. The result was the impressive exhibition layout, and star of our bumper issue, Medip Vale. You'll be able to see the model at the Midlands Garden Rail show, and the guide is also included this month.

If you are feeling inspired to create a line, Martin Ranson covers the construction of his in detail, and since it's now six years old, we can be confident the methods work well.

Once you've built a layout, you'll need rolling stock, so on the workbench are two sets of coaches some incredibly detailed RNAD wagons and a simple railcar.

To celebrate the 40th birthday of the UKs most prolific locomotive producer, we've been behind the scenes at Roundhouse and see what make their models so special - and then reveal details of their latest locomotive in our Product News.
