Welcome

Welcome to a new Live Journal about our Garden Rail Road. What's this you say? (Especially if you just came here from my forge journal.)

Well this journal is about the creation and operation of a G-Gauge model train layout in the great outdoors of the Smokey Mountains (IE: my front yard). It will document the things we do (right and wrong), the models we get, make or modify, and hopefully some day the operations of the VS&LR RR.

As with my other journals, this one has a few rules. Please keep comments on a hobby topic of this journal. Comments will be screened, because i will not allow hate speech, foul language, or adult content to see the light of day. This will be a family friendly journal.

Other then those simple rules, welcome and lets have some playing with trains in the garden!

Local groups

You might want to contact the good folks at Knoxville Area Model Railroaders. Among other activities, they maintain a G-Gauge layout built around a full size caboose at the Children’s Museum of Oak Ridge (where I teach fencing and the Oak Ridge Fencers Club meets.)

A couple of years ago, the building of this layout was featured in a series of episodes in "Working on the Railroad" show on the DIY Network.

There is also a group in Crossville, but I don't have much information about them other than a URL Crossville Model Railroad Club.
