Norway bound in Garden Rail

 

We're heading to Norway to visit the Bottom Hill Light Railway, built by Tom Lymga, this month. In its truly spectacular setting, this line sees regular running sessions from Tom's friends, which has encouraged him to develop the layout and he passes on some lessons learned.

On the other hand, if you want to share your line beyond nearby enthusiasts, we explain how to show it off to best advantage on video, and are looking forward to seeing the results.

Practical matters covered are:

  • Building a Boot Lane Works 'Nancy' chassis
  • Scratchbuilding coaches in G scale
  • Building simple steam engines
  • Adding a heat shield to a Regner Tram
  • Adding quick track power connections

There's also a review of the Garden Railway Specialists Peckett and all the latest product news for large-scale modellers.
