One place where this would be eminently practicable idea would be on one of the wealthy Cattle Ranches/ Sheep Stations in Australia: thoussnds of acres of free open land. Traveling across the red outback under the sun, camping next to the track under the deep dark sky twinkling with myriad stars...
I like your idea, but with one exception. Those darn snakes you have in Australia. I wouldn't sleep anywhere out of doors, unless, I could comfortably sleep knowing those slithery things would not crawl in your sleeping bag.
Cattle Ranches / sheep stations: thoussnds of acres of free open land" You clearly have no idea what the land is really like in outback Australia. Hell you even show your ignorance by calling such places Cattle Ranches. We don't call them ranches in Australia, they're called PASTORAL PROPERTIES or PASTORAL FREEHOLDS. Oh and not all of the outback is red coloured and those parts that are, aren't exactly suitable for cattle or sheep grazing either - no water and no suitable vegetation for cattle and sheep to feed on.
I've often dreamed of having a working railway on the family farm, and I can definitely imagine it by watching this great video. I only wish it could come true.
I can't believe that I'm the first one to make a comment on this video after seeing that it's been posted nearly 2 years ago.? Ah, to have a few coins in one's bank account and the love of a great hobby! For now it's the simple joy of watching others enjoy themselves.
Well having just found this, I'll put forth a comment... ahem.. ! Simply fantastic, awesome, extraordinarily wonderful... and finally "‘Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious’", nuff said.. spot on Lad and good Show.
I have seen on RUclips a similar narrow gauge line on someone's farm. It earned its keep by transporting hay and feed into a horse stable, and hauling out manure.
The black wagon looks like a colliery coal tub/dram. I have had a couple of steam driver experiences at the Sherwood Forest narrow gauge railway (2ft gauge) and the hour just goes too quickly... I could happily do this sort of thing all day
If this is the one with the orchard (then) The Railway Channel did a video on it. UPDATE: Scratch that, the one I was talking about is very small gauge ...this one is MASSIVE!!!!!!

Nice backyard RR but 1 minute of seeing an engine and car, then track, track, track, track? I’m a model Railroader also, and was expecting to see more of the train(s)....Not just track.
I have 950 acre of land and I would like to build something like this. is it possible to visit this place and if yes where is it located please ? thanks a lot
afxinfinitee One estimate I saw, based on 12 pound rail, for new rail, joiner plates, bolts, ties, spikes, and ballast, but exclusive of any earthmoving for cuts or fills, or any bridge work, was $100,000 per mile of track. That was US $ about 10 years ago, so adjust for location and inflation.
@@LandNfan You can do it much cheaper using "used parts". Its the loco and stock that will cost the biggest "wedge" But it can be done. 7 1/4" gauge or 5" gauge is attainable for us mortals to have the dream. I was lucky enough to own a 7 1/4" steam loco for a few years but unfortuantley didnt have a big enough garden to lay out a proper line....So the pipe dream remains....
If I had a BIG piece of land, that's just the size of steam train I'd want.😄
Yep, me too.
You could power it with a single log
I have a huge piece of mountain land, but I'm not going to say what it is. I'm still hoping for a cheapest railway either that or 7.25" gauge railway

Stars? Is that what you call those obnoxious, bloodsucking insects that prevent you from sleeping?
To be honest: I liked it very much in Aussieland!
You might feel differently after spending an hour or more right next to a hot firebox under the Australian sun.

I agree
but the worst I'd own is one of them 4 wheel Speeder Car &/or a handcar
German narrow gauge locomotives have an appealing look all of their own. Loved the vid.
This is awesome, would love to have this as a garden railroad!!!!!

Wow, that is so cool!
Very nice video. Thanks for posting and have a nice day too.
Nice grand scale line. There is a L&NWR Alfred the Great floating around in grand scale. I'd love to make a copy of it for a similar railway.
It's narrow gauge. So actual scale.

That's what I call a garden railway!
It's a really nice little railway. Cheers!
Excellent! Would love to see an update if you've expanded the tracks, etc. Cheers from upstate NY!
Could derail.
Who cares if it is German narrow gauge or not. It would be great fun to have a personal railroad, period. I love it.
If i had a load of money… this would be my back garden, for sure!
This ain't a proper railway in the UK. There is no points or signal failures or engineering work going on resulting in a bus service being needed 🤣
Where we're going we don't need no signals!
the exhaust sound, i love it!!
We need to see that engine at full speed.
lovely stand of italian cypress trees
Beautiful, thanks!!
Whereabouts in Kent is this? Can't believe I missed this whilst I was in the UK.
looks exactly like my LGB Stanz locomotive, only somewhat bigger
What is a " Stanz"?
@@steffenrosmus9177 He meant Stainz

2ft gauge?
Yep
So cool. What a legacy
by looking up the loco, its the Richmond Light Railway
Beautiful. Where is it located?
I want to own that
amazing!!
Thanks
Just a little more train ❤
Great! Thanks!
Lovely engine
This is my dream!
I have 950 acre of land and I would like to build something like this. is it possible to visit this place and if yes where is it located please ? thanks a lot
They surely have a great lot of money :D
Sir, is your railway the same gauge as the Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch railway? I like what you have done, good job....
It's two foot rather than fifteen inches.
I wonder if one is ok to build a model railway in their allotment.
I'd really love to know how much this would cost to build.

@@wideyxyz2271 This is about 24" tho.
The heck with “G” scale!
Can I be the engineer for a day??
Sounds like the gage has to be a little wider on the curves. 🙂
At least one good looking steam engine in GB😉😉
'You want planning permission for WHAT...?'!
Is this "G-Scale"?
Nice one.
What gauge is this? 2ft?
Yes 2 foot
I want one......pleaase!!! Lottery dream......
What’s its purpose?
Purpose? To have a GREAT TIME with and to enjoy something that others can also enjoy and be amazed with.
Prolly moving some gardening stuff about.
For fun
So cool
Could do with some oiling to drastically reduce that awful squeeking & creeking 🤔😯😮 It sounds so irretating.
