Garden Rail covers all aspects of outdoor model railways. It is aimed at established converts to the hobby, as well as those yet to desert their indoor layouts and discover the real potential of large-scale modelling in an outdoor setting. The magazine is a monthly publication.

Did you know? The Lynton & Barnstaple line, once nicknamed the “toy train”, has its very own 16mm scale model railway! Pete Chandler takes us behind the scenes, and shows how you can get involved.

On the workbench this month:
Building a 5-inch gauge loco
Chassis for our 16mm Planet diesel
Scratch-building a Gauge 3 steeple cab
Welsh slate wagons
A micro layout for your office corner
Repairing an LGB point

Out in the garden, we’re exploring lineside planting ideas and sharing tips to encourage youngsters into our hobby.

Plus: All the latest news for large-scale modellers!
