Ah ha Wipeout DOH!
Posted by John Busby on Wednesday, October 8, 2008 6:27 AM

Hi guys

No more railway uhm planted wrong plant and its ######!!! the railway completely.

So having got rid of the plant and assesed the damage it's rebuild time cannot alter the sharpish curves, anyone got other sugestions to think about for EGR MK II other than put in better edging! doh!!.

This will be only the second garden railway built by me one big blue is enough would rather avoid the ones I missed first time round

And can any one sugest an old time model bus for the temporary replacement passanger service preferably around 1/18 scale if possabble

regards John Busby

Take a look at the Hartland Locomotive Works Doozie rail bus if you want one to run on rail instead of the highway.

Put the rails down, then backfill with asphalt patch or cement to look like a road/street.  Then you can have the best of both worlds.
