Yeah Mate I don't have any experience about ponds but I do about running your railway around a swimming pool, very similar i would suggest. <br /> <br />I was not serious about what i did as far as landscaping was concerned as i did not have much room but some thoughts you may consider. If you have any water buffalo around or crocodiles in your pond don't do it. You will not get them they will get you ! <br /> <br />However if you do not have these or similar problems and even if you are in the tropics you have the most wonderful of all opportunities, as nothing is more satisfying than the reflection of your teains in still water; this is doubly so if it is of a night time and you, like me run passenger trians. <br /> <br />You would need to ballast the track most carefully as well I would conmsider using cribbing, particularly if they are likely to flood. <br /> <br />Ian; Kawana Island Tropical Railway.
