Anyone here into garden railways - LGB / Gauge 1? Would like to see some pics....
Also, who makes a 1:22.5 or 1:24 scale model of a Disco, pref D1, and if so where is it available in US.
My pics are here

I had no idea people did such things. Very cool, I like it!

Very nice!

We have a bunch of LGB trains, but they only come out around Christmas and take over the living room. We usually get one new car every year, and every few years an engine.

Very nice, Neil. I had an HO-scale layout back when I was in high school (yes, there was electricity way back then), but it's all in boxes or sold off now. Haven't had time to restart my interest in model railroading.

That's not what I was picturing when I read the subject line.... I was picturing more like this:

I've seen indoor ones that can be quite impressive, and I've seen the ones you can ride, I didn't realize that there were people that were doing something between the two, though it makes sense that there is such.....

im into LGB
have very many locos and cars in different railroads schemes.
i ran it around the pool one year with drink holder cars and stuff like that.

the kids and squirels dissed it so all went back into storage.
San Diego is a nice place to run outdoor trains.
