Hawk Lake Garden Railroad

I started my garden railroad in 2005, the year after our water garden was created. The main line is a simple “dog-bone” layout, with a 4% grade connecting the two return-loops.

A well-fed field-train engineer becomes a tasty snack for a not so well-fed, hungry Edmontosaurus! Life isn't easy on the Hawk Lake Garden Railroad...

In 2009 I started another line which will eventually include an LGB rack section for my LGB Furka-Oberalp electric locomotive.

Both lines use LGB turnouts with electric motors, operated by EPL track sensors, train magnets, and a timer (for a timed station stop).
