The first thing I'm making is a 3.5mt long steel bridge to carry twin tracks and span the small horseshoe bay, (pond photo, top right).

Fabricated from 'L' section and flat MS bar, painted with smooth Hammerite silver paint and held together by 2mm stainless steel nuts and bolts, over 1000 of them, a true labour of love!!

 

 

This is my second making blog which will feature a 1/32 scale garden railway.

My first blog, hansbromwich.blogspot.co.uk features my 1/32 scale RC Tug Project.

The garden railway will circumnavigate this pond and will be largely based on Marklin Spur 1 rolling stock, locomotives and control gear.
