I have had a lot of model railroads over the decades – here are the ones I have done in G Gauge:
Front Porch Santa Train – My first G Gauge Layout  – See bottom of this page for all 6 years of this technological marvel!
Outdoor Back Yard Train – See below
Indoor Railroad

Some track on the mulch, a transformer and a train, that’s how it started……..

Model Railroads Page 29 – Back Yard Final Run for the Year and Santa Train Test (October 25, 2012)

Above – June 2, 2013 – Overall view – working on other projects, and a very wet spring, means that the rapidly growing ground cover is covering more than just the ground. The south loop track has disappeared! Guess we’ll have to call out Woody and the crew again.

---

Above – April 2, 2017 – The track is complete for now and the RBRBB (Really Big Red Brick Building) is in place to house the electronics. Now it is time to build a rock wall to support this saggy track around the tree.

---

Above – May 24, 2017 – The South Side Sag has been mitigated by the Pile O’ Rocks Wall. It has even been thunderstorm tested and found to be stable; the interstitial use of rocks of four basic sizes also allows drainage.
