They must get to be quite a problem when they pile up.

new garden railway
Posted by hackmo15 on Tuesday, June 27, 2006 12:20 AM
Hi Folks,
Thanks for all the info on the garden railroads. I listened and just got going. I bought a starter set and put it out and ran my new train! Now 2 months later, I have about 40' of new track down and about 60' left to complete my loop. I can't wait, and every time some one comes by, they have a suggestion and most have been incorporated. I've been checking around and haven't found another one in my area. Central Oregon. I'm already looking for a snowplow.
Thanks again for all the help. I'll post some pics as soon as I figurout how.
Later
Jon
