Looking for websites with garden railway pictures please. Also, links to any clubs in the Houston area (this may have been answered in one of my previous questions. if so, I apologize).
Thlorian,
Here are a few mostly from “down under”, but don’t worry, you won’t have turn your monitor upside down to see them [:D]
Each has site has probably got links to more, so that should keep you busy for the next few minutes until someone posts some USA links.

Vic,
Most of those GR’s are from Australia. Acually I stole the list off a yahoo group that Phil of ToenailRidge runs for us NZ’ers & Australian’s. The term ‘Down Under’ is used to refer to both countires, usually by people in the Northern Hemisphere who don’t know or care what the differences are.
Glen.
Glen, Just noticed that I called you by the wrong name, D’oh! my Bad…
Sorry, the coffee doenst kick in till around noontime.[D)]
I just notice that there are a few kiwis over at the MLS site , better representation than most US states.
For me “Down Under” refers to something falling off the workbench and rolling undernieth it. Its gone “Down Under” never to be seen again![;)]
Your always welcome to our railroad near Chicago at http://planetdonnstudios.com/mike/index.html
