DF: I am hoping that in exchange for his garden railroad, my husband
will see the benefit in me getting an N scale railroad for
indoors...those teeny tiny railroads just fascinate me...

So Donna, on these garden trains the idea is to suit the garden to the
<br>scale of the train? How much room do you think is adequate for
<br>something that size? Also, just give me a guess as to how much a
<br>locomotive would cost. Usually, I like to work in smaller scale. I
tie <br>flies that are smaller than your pinky finger nail. I have hand
painted <br>soldiers in battle scenes that are about the size of your
thumb nail. <br>Until I became so busy I was doing an HO scale train
scene at <br>Christmas. But I can see the attraction of a garden train
as well.<br><br>Thanks<br><br>DF<br><br>Donna wrote:<br><br>>It takes
