Congratulations for the beautiful dream railway. Even when I was little I imagined having one. It's nice to know that pensioners have come together with other enthusiasts to make it happen. But luckily you are not Italians, who would also find opportunities to argue in hobbies.
How to maintain this railway
I imagine that the route requires some consolidation work, change of rails, etc.
And what about the electricity supply line Do you do everything
Warm greetings from Italy.
Hello people!

If I might suggest, you might want to consider sourcing out an old garden tractor mower deck, mount it on its own rail wheels, power it with an old electric (possibly 24 volt diesel starter) motor, and use it to vacuum up the excess leaves and other organic debris from off the track. You could compost the debris and then use the compost wherever needed.

Hi I have a question. Isn't ballast normally used as a trackbed to keep the rails from shifting Did you opt not to use it because of the cost or is it there and I am not seeing it because of the leaves Or is it only needed when the rails have to support over a certain amount of weight. I know nothing about railroad construction LOL

3: 47, I'm guessing that is a spring switch If I read right, there was a technique that the motorman could use to throw the points of the switch and that was to apply the brake as well as increase the throttle which would somehow energize the track and cause the points to throw. Maybe I'm wrong.

When I was a child, my grandparents had a big garden with a river in the back. They lived close to the montain so there was a lot of wood available in any shape and size. I built too with friends couple of meters of wooden railway with cool curves on the river side. It was very cool stuff.

1: 06 and
3: 45 and 6: 20 and 8: 54 turnout. Switch cutting is an incident in railway transport, which consists in the switching of the switch by the wheels of rolling stock moving along an unspecified route in the direction from the root attachment of the points to their ends.

2 of my friends like railroads and model trains. They told me about John Allen and his Gorre & Daphetid railroad. I read Gorre & Daphetid book and was stunned, impressed very much.
Your railroad is as mind-boggling as John Allen's. Thanks for the vid, from Japan.

This was a dream of mine when I was between the ages of 10-15. I still love seeing people making a dream like this a reality. As a glass telegraph insulator collector, we gotta get some glass jewels up on those poles! Beautiful setup! Thank you for sharing!

A humongous amount of to you. I saw at least one of your reconstruction videos. Thank you for the virtual ride on your Railway. Again what a tremendous amount of perseverance, effort, and what my Grandmother called (stick-to-ivness.

Such a rich memory of riding the train at The Forest Park amusement park way back in the fifties somewhere in PA. I loved that little train. PWG. P. S. The leaves partially obscuring the tracks makes the video more interesting.

Just so you know, borax is a wood preservative if you're using untreated lumber for ties. I've been treating some old exposed porch railings with it by sprinkling it on dry, then just let the rain wash it in.

02: 14 Oh my God, a curve! Drove the straight at high speed and didn't brake before the curve! This will be a departure into botany! The wheel flanges probably glowed and nothing happened! Oh my God!

Would be neat to hear more about this little road. History, how long exist, how it was built and where all the rail came from and how power is generated Super interesting.

Such a nice railroad,
A dream for me.
Because I'm a Japanese high school girl. I want to make something like this and drive it myself, but it's a dream again.
