	Garden railway - Definition, explanation
		Plants are usually an integral part of a garden railway, and dwarf varieties along with pruning are often used to keep them in proper proportion.
		Buildings are also often used in a garden railway, though they too must be constructed to withstand the weather.
		A frequent theme is the railway in an idealised urban or rural environment, so it is often found in the context of a model village.

		Plants are usually an integral part of a garden railway, and dwarf varieties along with pruning are often used to keep them in proper proportion.
		A frequent theme is the railway in an idealised urban or rural environment, so it is often found in the context of a model village.
		Some Garden Railways work opposite to the model village style and opt more for a railway in the garden, where the railways runs amongst normal plants, not in scale with the railway.

	A Gorgeous Garden Railway Book
		Now, few garden railroads have 100% commitment to a single, coherent vision, but the most attractive and enjoyable railroads have at least taken these principles into account, whether they are "back 40 empires," or a 6'x10' loop around the fir tree.
		Her contribution is visible, not only in the text that discusses appropriate garden railroad plants, but also in the choice of photographs that show effective use of plantings for each garden railroad.
		Most garden railways in each region seem to imitate the first well-known and well-established railroad in the club; if it was a ground-level empire that ran the perimeter of the back yard, so will most of the other railroads in the region.

	Schwarzburg Modelleisenbahn: 22nd National Garden Railway Convention
		Though I don't currently have a garden railway and none is planned for the foreseeable future I couldn't let this opportunity pass.
		The layout contained a mix of U.S. and Foreign trains which seems to be more common amongst the Garden Railway set than in the smaller gauges which tend to focus on a particular period and location.
		Since many garden railroaders have indoor layouts as well it's almost as if their outdoor layout allows them some freedom of the strictures that they place on their indoor empires.

	Re: Another Garden Railway in MR. - Trains.com Forums
		Actually, the garden railroad stuff occasionally cropping up catches the wife's eye, to the point where she is starting to ask about doing one in our yard.
		The garden railway article was quite an interesting read, knowing now about the volume of fill and material needed to build such a massive outdoor layout, I am going to stay with my plywood express.
		I got into garden railways as a result of articles in a the British Railway Modeller magazine, my G scale locos are as well detailed if not better than my HO ones.

	What's new on Andrew's Garden Railway
		The new formation is a lot straighter than the one it replaced on this side of the garden, and passes a lot further from the cotoneaster.
		On the right hand side of the garden, a section of the flowerbed was raised, partly to use up some spare half-log edging, but mostly to provide somewhere to dump the pile of soil which was rapidly filling all of the available buckets.
		This is quite a steep drop from left to right, and with the old track loose on the ballast it was difficult to maintain a good alignment at the bottom of the hill, with some spectacular derailments as a result.

	The K-Zone: Build a simple garden railway in an afternoon
		The disadvantage is that you need to be quite careful about wheather protection; model railway track is not really designed to be used outdoors, and mains-operated equipment has to be prevented from getting wet for obvious reasons.
		The railway runs along the top of a low wall, then carries on around a corner and along another wall.
		This is useful for garden installtion, because the mains transformer can remain indoors, and only the low-voltage cable needs to be run in the garden.

		As we were building on an existing concreted yard, we did not have to lay any foundations; the bricks were layed directly onto the concrete slabs.
		The mortar was so strongly bonded to the bricks (as one would hope, of course) that each brick has to be freed from a layer of mortar with a chisel and club hammer.
