Garden Rail

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.

The North Teign Light Railway took Max Jones over five years to build. Meandering through an extensive garden, sadly it is no more. We enjoy a trip along it in its prime, showing just how a model railway can enhance any garden

Over on the workbench, we have three coach construction articles, working on a 16mm scale Talyllyn Railway four-wheeler, Gauge One pre-grouping body and finishing the amazing Darjeeling and Himalayan Railway vehicles. 

We also build a Planet locomotive in 16mm scale, as well as converting an old Tri-ang 'Big-big' model to make it look more realistic. 

Finally, Simon Atkinson paints and weathers his superb Tallyllyn viaduct. It not only looks great, the finish will stand up to the British weather!

All this, and the latest Product News for large-scale modellers.
