| What's a garden railway? |
It's an outdoor model train layout.
For some of us, that means a layout complete with buildings and people and tiny plants,
perhaps meant to be a scale model of a specific fullsize railroad.
For others of us, it's a track going through a full-size garden. |
| What kind of track do you use? |
Paul and Chuck have Gargraves stainless steel track in their outdoor layouts. |
| Are the ties U-V resistant? |
Probably not. Chuck taped the tops of the rails and spray-painted the ties. Paul keeps
his track covered. |
| What happens when it rains? |
Everything on the layout gets wet, and therefore clean.
O-scale trains are not designed to get wet. We
store our trains indoors when we're not running them but leave track, buildings, and,
of course, plants outdoors. |
| Do you bring it all indoors for the winter? |
No. The track stays outdoors all year long.
