Couple Builds Eight-Year Garden Railway
4 May
Summary
- A couple completed their garden miniature railway after eight years.
- The railway spans 400m with five engines and can host fundraisers.
- They built the railway together, calling it a magical joint effort.
A couple has culminated eight years of dedicated effort by completing a stunning miniature railway in their garden. This ambitious project, initiated by Angela after their 2017 marriage, has transformed their quarter-acre property in Clacton-on-Sea, Essex.
The impressive railway extends approximately 400 meters and includes five engines capable of carrying up to 20 adults. Thousands of custom-made sleepers form the track beds, which Dave and Angela meticulously dug themselves.
This remarkable garden feature has become a testament to their partnership. Dave, also a DJ, described the railway as 'magic' and expressed pride in their joint accomplishment, noting its significance as a shared endeavor.
The couple hopes their unique railway will serve a greater purpose by hosting fundraising events for the local lifeboat station, turning their personal passion project into a community benefit.
