The bridge starting @ 0:52 is pretty special.

Thanks for your comment. The bridge you refer to is a model of the Royal Albert Bridge in Saltash, which allows the line to cross the River Tamar. Originally designed by Isambard Kingdom Brunel to carry 2 tracks, in reality was only single-tracked because of cost constraints. It is now a major bottleneck on rail services in the region. At least the model is faithful to Brunel's original design!

That is an awesome station set up. Mine doesn't even come that close.

Hi, thanks for your interest. This line is in a back garden in Hampshire, England. Not mine, though - unfortunately! I was just lucky enough to get to visit it one time.
