Hillwalking, chickens and - err - garden railways.

A couple of beauties here on a great railway in a great garden.

In some shots it would be easy to think that you were looking at 1/1 scale.

I was lucky enough to see one of these Aster locos recently. Very impressive compared to our little 16mm / G scale stuff. But I´m not going to go native, don´t worry. I can´t afford to .... :-\
 
That's a very enjoyable video and a beautiful locomotive. I really liked the taking on water from the working spout! Is the layout in someone's yard or in a park? What a great setup!

Thanks for posting.
 
Extraordinary how well maintained everything is - tackwork, ballast, not to mention the lawn. Amazing.
