Russ and Barb Larson’s garden railroad

real nice garden railroad… one of these days I will have me one… Thanks for sharing

Very impressive.

I’m an N Scaler,but what a neat project. Is Russ still in Wisconsin with this railroad?

The Larson’s railroad is the most beautiful, well designed G scale pike that I have ever seen. It brings to mind Disney’s Donald Duck cartoon “Out of Scale.” Every thing fits together so perfectly. Great!

That is truly awesome, you both have done such wonderful job and look like you are having loads of fun. Thank you so much for sharing.

Great layout

What a great Garden railroad, thank you for sharing it with us.

A wonderful video! And so great to see Russ; he was a huge inspiration to me when I was getting started and I had the honor of meeting him once on a tour of Kalmbach Pub.

Absolutely stunning! What a great way to enjoy retirement - combining gardening in miniature with model railroading. Thanks for sharing.

WOW, so this is what retirement looks like! Living in Pennsylvania makes garden railways less of an option, but yours is inspiration for my N scale empire. Thanks so much for sharing.

Wow!! Question: The buildings survive inclement weather?

Thank you for showing us your beautifull layout .

Fantastic in every way. If you guys are doing this in Wisconsin, all the more kudos for the effort required to winterize the railroad.

Truly AMAZING !!! It must be great fun watching and running the trains. No wonder it’s called
“The World’s Greatest Hobby”.

The PS&N never looked so good. I live in Pagosa Springs and from what I’ve seen in the archives, and from what little is left the railroad, it was pretty much a hard working short line operation hauling logs and live stock to and from the D&RG junction at Gato. Great work and landscaping. Enjoyed the video. Thanks
