Rails in the Garden are a group based in NSW, Australia that meet regularly to run our live steam and battery-electric trains on 32mm and 45mm gauge tracks at events held in member's gardens and at regular indoor exhibition events.
We produce our own quarterly Australian magazine devoted to the garden railway hobby and subscription enquires are welcomed by e-mail: magazine@ritg.org.au.
Our premier annual event is SHSU and we are already looking forward to the next edition on 17-19 May 2024; details of pre-registration are available at shsteamup.com or by e-mail: registrar@shsteamup.com.
Prospective members may attend events by expressing their interest to secretary@ritg.org.au and a full calendar of our activities is available at ritg.org.au.

Wonderful video. Thanks for showing us the whole line. A lovely long trip
Thanks Alan, I wanted to record the “less seen” parts of this line, which viewed from train level are very pretty. Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it.
Excellent trip, great video of a very extensive line, thanks. Subscribed!
Thanks Donna, there’s plenty more on the channel and more to come. Glad you enjoyed it!
Dear friend in spirit, wonderful. Thank you for the wonderful journey through a lovely landscape. Greetings from BKB, Henry
Thank you Henry, it is a lovely garden.
Thank you much for the ride. I always wanted to drive a train and this actually feels like I am
Thanks Michelle, that’s what I’d hoped would be the effect. I have a couple of similar videos on my channel if you’d like to see more.
Wow. Great long layout ! Fine ride through nice landscape. What a labor of love.
Cheers from Detroit 🇺🇲
Thanks @PapaTony99 - so glad you liked it! We have a few other similar railways worth seeing, both on the channel and coming soon, so we hope you’ll like them too! Cheers from Sydney 🇦🇺
I enjoyed the ride! Thank you!
No worries! I try to capture the feel that you’re driving the loco yourself. I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed it!
Very nice track! Best regards Frank
Thank you! Very glad you like it, it’s one of my favourite lines to run on.
What means 16mm track? Is it realy 16mm with? It looks like more. Best regards Frank
@Amselbahner Hi, yes I admit it’s confusing: it’s actually the name of the *scale*, not the gauge: 16 mm on a model represents one foot in real life - a foot is about 305mm so that works out as about 1:19 scale. The mix of imperial and metric measuring systems seems ridiculous but most historic prototypes are pre-metric so their original workshop plans are in feet and inches, but it’s easier to model in millimetres. It’s very close to G scale and an ideal size for live steam or radio-controlled battery conversions of LGB (we’ve abandoned powered track). See or for more information.
@Amselbahner As far as gauge is concerned, if you used 16mm *scale* to model standard gauge prototypes then the gauge would be close to Gauge 3 (2 1/2 inch gauge or 64mm), but 16mm scale is usually used in narrow gauge modelling; ideal in the garden as it permits tighter radius curves. As a club we use the commonly available track gauges of either 32mm (Gauge 0) or 45mm (Gauge 1, as also used by LGB to represent metre gauge). It’s a happy coincidence that 32mm gauge track represents 2 foot gauge, which is about right for many narrow gauge lines (“feldbahn” in Deutsch) and 45mm gauge is somewhere between 2 1/2 foot to 3 foot gauge, also common in UK and light industrial railways. This particular line uses 45mm track.
@@SteamInYourGarden thanks for this detailed information. For my self I drive at 45mm with LiveSteam and electric. Best regards Frank
