    30 trains run through 17 stations simultaneously.
    It is controlled by closed circuit television monitors from a central control room.

    I considered the streamlined Coronation by Ace Trains of London a masterpiece.
    The Duchess is a work of art.

    Hi There,
    I have just completed a video of my London Underground line from Victoria to Sambridge.

    If you would like to see please click on the link below.



    The Metro Vic locomotives ran up to 1960.

    Enjoy Roy.

    Very cool layout, those metroviks are fantastic… but having 6 of them but only a few Duchesses...
    I guess your next venture should be road widening, there looks to be some major traffic problems on those streets :)

    the quality of O Gauge has noticeably improved in quality and attractive prices in the last few years.. the variety now available is amazing considering what it used to be.

    Thanks for the comments, there are in fact 8 Duchess class locomotives running on this layout now which have been delivered since filming.
    Photographs of some which I have to hand are below.

    I attached a camera to the rear of the Mid/day Scot.
    This travels over the new extension and shows the quadruple track.

  19. I just hope for your sake that you have excellent security. There have been too many cases of garden railways being targeted by thieves.
