Scottish Garden Railways - Large Scale Model Trains In YOUR Garden Or Home

Scottish Garden Railways

Large scale trains in YOUR garden or home

Scotlands first Garden Train specialist

Home Station

All shows are now cancelled over the next few months and we are all more or less confined to the house. But hopefully all the staff will be able to get busy on their railways as the weather improves. If there is anything you need, just ask, I might just have it. As long as I don't catch anything I should still be able to ship from my local Post Office/food shop.

If you are passing during your statutary exercise or shopping trip you can collect anything from the front of the house - I will leave it out - Keep well Sandy

By the way

Secondhand always wanted. Mainly G scale but other scales considered

This could be your garden - Accucraft live steam Canadian Royal Hudson and six matching coaches - goes as well as it looks

Arrived at Bo'ness, home of the Scottish Railway Preservation Society on Saturday 15th November 2014 is this North British Glasgow built LMS/Turkish Railways 8F 2-8-0 locomotive 45170. The picture suggests it might be in steam but this is not the case as the vapour is being supplied by Austerity 0-6-0T number 19 which was moving 45170 around the station. You can now see this locomotive in the Museum of Scottish Railways at Bo'ness
