Visiting another garden line...

A few weeks ago I was lucky to be invited to visit John Wenlock's garden railway. John is member number 3 of the 16mm society (I believe) and his line is wonderfully integrated into the garden...
I took along my 7/8ths stock for a run, and enjoyed the lower loop, and despite appearance a fun and challenging drive with a few gradients and a sharp turn to contend with. My engine behaved itself and the stock looked good in and amongst the greenery.
John hand build his track and it looks superb, it's certainly given me ideas if I ever extend the tramway, so I could represent 18" gauge track with scale 7/8ths sleepers.
A very pleasant afternoon and thanks to John for his hospitality! More soon...
