If you ever doubted your insignificance, here you go.

Amazing. But I couldn't help wondering if a garden railway can actually be too long?

26:25 shows that even on such a huge railway, the "out of scale hand from the sky" is needed.

How many fillings would an unmodified Mamod need to get round there once?

Mamods being so fast, it might just get all the way around on one fill up without a load. At least it might get this far, I don't know if that was even a full trip around the line!

I guess that the owner does nothing else but run his railroad.

Amazing railway!

It does make our efforts look insignificant, but I will just soldier on as best I can!
