Outdoor railroading
Posted by Anonymous on Wednesday, November 12, 2003 4:42 PM
I was just wondering what people that have outdoor railroads do with their layouts in the winter or when it rains. Do they completely dismantel them or cover them up. Any answers?[|)]

There is a similar question posted on the garden rr forum, you might check it out. Most run 12 months a year, rain, snow, cold or hot.

Check out the operating model rotary snowplows linked to a reply there. Just the thing for them snowy days.

   Have fun with your trains

Check out the pictures of a huge out door railroad at www.trainmountain.org which is a little larger than the backyard garden show.
