What track do you use?

[steampics]

@drwhotrainfan Thanks mate. Appreciate that!

[steampics]

@LeeWoodsPhotography Hi mate. Sorry for late reply! The material under the track is just general wood. Our uneven surfaces mean that we could not have had just track as it were. The wood isn't ballasted but it is drilled and screwed down into holes drilled into the wall. This creates smooth running and good foundation for track laying. It has served us well for 6 years now. Rain and now have never been a problem...see our other videos mate! :)

@LeeWoodsPhotography Everything stays outside mate.

Why dont you get more platform straights and add them to chilvers?

Hi, like the video, I like Derwent Grange in BR livery and having seen your auto coach I wish that I had bought one,Ive seen a couple for sale recently,It would have gone a treat with my pannier.What make is your turntable, do you leave it out permanently?I am about to add coach and wagon sidings onto my garden railway and need to be able to organise the locos once they have hauled their trains into the sidings. I look forward to more good days in the garden,i look forward to your next vid

@gearbox428 The Autocoaches, as you say, are quite common and mine is W197, the BR Maroon Airfix Model and cost me a simple £5 second hand. They run very well and never come off the track. The Turntable is a Hornby model (RRP about £55) and is only put out on special days (i.e. for filming) or for open days. Your new sidings sound great. Good Luck with your future garden railway sessions!

Love it mate. It sure is the weather for garden railways at the minute. I had a great session on mine saturday afternoon.

@porter6669196327 Cheers mate. Have checked out your latest videos too; very good. Enjoyed them. The weather has been "nice" but as soon as u start moving around to work on your railway it gets "far too hot"! lol. It takes me bout 60-90 minutes to get my railway up to filming standard (i.e. cleaning, loco's, stock, buildings, turntable etc) so it was just too hot, I was stupid to film in that weather lol! Cheers mate. Happy Garden Railwaying!!

Great Video like the sounds on them

[steampics]

@BristolCastle Thank you, the sounds take ages to dub; thats the only problem!
