Sir Frederick basking in the May sunshine. Note the loss of the power van -
a slimmer battery pack is on the wagon allowing more variety in the trains.
This is the continuing story of the Castagnola South
Light Railway, a railway in my back garden.
The railway runs on 45mm gauge track and is generally
of a scale of 16mm to the foot. I say generally, because this translates to
1:19, but some of my stock is 1:22.
I have four electric locomotives which run from
batteries fitted inside them, two of which are controlled by radio. A fifth
engine runs from batteries in a van towed behind and fitted with radio control.
I also have three live steam
locomotives, which are radio controlled.
The main
circuit scales out at just short of 1 mile in length, giving the trains a
good run and some real work to do up hill and down dale.
