G-scale in the garden looks amazing. I knew a guy who ran a hobby store dedicated to G-scale equipment - he had a massive demonstration layout in his garden. My first experience of real operating (the loop of track was so long that simply running the loco round the whole loop to run round a train was not an option - you had to find a passing loop!). Sadly, he moved house a few years ago, and I think the new owners demolished the layout. <br /> <br />I have a small collection of LGB equipment - basically a starter set, 2 extra cars, and the two track packs they offer - but my garden isn't really suitable for railroad use. The front garden isn't secluded enough to be secure (my major worry with garden trains would be theft, hence my wanting to keep the layout hidden from outside view). The back garden slopes steeply, and I can't afford the LGB rack-rail loco and track (pity though, it's an interesting little thing - like a box motor). At the moment, therefore, it's restricted to being set up on a paved area in decent weather. Still fun though!
