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.
Latest issue
Feldbahn railways are a German speciality, and so it's no surprise that they are a popular subject with the locals, including Uwe Hannemann, whose impressive layout we feature this month. If small locomotives and rolling stock appeal, then you will love this line.
We delve back in history for a look at some early coal-fired 16mm scale locomotives, and also review one of LGB's latest – the Harz mountain railway Mallet, a truly impressive model.
On the workbench:
A Baguley 677 diesel
Bolster wagons for 16mm and 7/8th scales
Traders carts for a model market
Cherry trees for your line
Photo planks
Building a Pickering brake van
All this, plus the latest news for the large-scale modeller.
