We will be updating the trains page very soon.
All the locomotives and rolling stock on the Barna Railway are made by LGB, this German company produce an excellent range of G scale models, they are very well made and are well suited to the garden environment. I have five locomotives available for running trains, three of these have came from the LGB starter sets and two were purchased on there own. There is a good variety of rolling stock to run and most of it would be out on the railway making up different trains.
This "Stainz" steam locomotive is from the analogue starter set, it can still run on the digital MTS system, but it doesn't get out on the track to often.
I will fit a digital decoder into it some day. It's a nice steam engine and pulls well.
Our permanent way train, is hauled by Diesel locomotive 3005 from the digital starter set.
It's made up of a flat wagon with some old track panels, a mantra crane and a high sided gondola filled with ballast.
This loco had extra weight fitted to increase pulling power.
This oil train is a regular on the Barna Railway, its shown here being hauled by steam locomotive 995005 from the digital starter set.
The train is made up of four DR oil tank wagons we hope to be adding more oil wagons to this train very soon.
The biggest locomotive on the Barna Railway is the DB V52 901 Diesel, it's a terrific loco with excellent pulling power. It's has an LGB European digital sound unit installed which gives it an extra touch of realism when running.
Our passenger train is made up of two DB 2nd class coaches and a DB 2nd class combine.
The latest locomotive to arrive on the Barna Railway is the DR Kö 6503 Diesel. Its mostly used for working freight trains, and shunting in the storage yard.
The freight train in this picture is made up of a shell oil tanker, a BP oil tanker, a low sided gondola and a Persil box van.
The freight wagons in this picture are a Hohes C box van, a Leikeim beer box van and an Avia tanker.
The train is hauled by our DR Kö 6503 Diesel locomotive.
More rolling stock for the Barna Railway. Parked on the storage sidings is a four piece DR ore wagon set and below these there is a Minol oil tanker and an RhB Cargo Domizil Freight van.
We hope to keep increasing our fleet and we will update this page when new items arrive on the Barna Railway.
