Visiting Djurhedens Järnväg - Djurheden Garden Railway

In June a small detachment from out Model Railway Club, Gleng, went to a weekend-trip to Sweden when Helena & Roger invited fellow Garden Railway modellers to get-togheter in their lovely garden in Djura where they have built a most beautiful, scenic and very detailed Garden Railway with many cameos; Djurhedens Järnväg (Railway) with some 140 meter of mainline. 

It was raining more or less through the our day out, but it didn't stop us from running trains. More than 20 people attended to this get-togheter. These trains or locomotives was 3D-printed:

It's a more than 400 km drive to get there and we were 4 members in our car, so it was limited how many trains we were able to bring. I brought my German military Heeresfeldbahn diesel to haul my Pioneer Ferry Load: 

It looks like Pettson and Findus are discussing this military presence:

Here are some other trains running this day:

When it started to rain even more heavily it was time for a break and Helena invited to cake, coffee and hotdog in their garden-tent:

The rainy weather made the look of running of live-steam engines even more spectacular due to more visible steam: 

It's not that easy to notice but if you see inside one of my rubber dinghys you get an idea of how much (rain-) water it collected through this running session:

Here is a YouTube video of this great day out:

Djurhedens Järnväg is open for the public on specific dates during the summer and at Christmas, which are announced on Helena's and Roger's website; Djurhedens Järnväg. A visit to this beautiful Garden Railway and friendly people is highly recommended.

Thank you for your invitation and hospitality Helena and Roger!
