C&M Drewitt's Nursery "Home of G Scale Trains for the Garden"

Our nursery is situated in the Dandenongs, east of Melbourne. We supply plants,  bulbs and trains for the garden by mail order.  Stock may also be viewed any time at our nursery, by arrangement.

Garden Trains are very popular in overseas gardens. They are easy to run, affordable and fun.

The rail consists of 45mm gauge brass track, set on ultra violet safe PVC sleepers. To enhance the realism the rail can be laid on a bed of fine screenings.

The locomotives run from a 240 volt power control which is set up out of the weather in either the garage or a shed with power available. The power supply from the controller is 18 volts and is quite safe in the garden.

The most economical way of delivering the power to the track, from the controller, is by the use of 5 or 7 core trailer wire, (available from our nursery).

Your garden becomes the scenery with natural rocks, rockery plants and miniature bulbs enhancing a rather nostalgic extension to the garden. Certainly a great way to get Dad and the boys into the garden!

For us, the idea of a train running through the garden landscaped with living miniature plants, natural rock features, and real water is most appealing.

We supply German made LGB® locomotives rolling stock and accessories of a very high standard of workmanship. Ready to run Starter Sets range from around $480.00. Several Starter sets are also available with real locomotive sound for around $781.00 (component value of this set works out around $1350.00) a great saving.

We also deal in American made models and accessories in both Aristocraft and Bachmann brands.

From time to time we hold "Train days" at our nursery where you can enjoy our outdoor train display and gardenTo view photos of our Garden train display, click here.

Please do not hesitate to call should you have any questions, or would like to know when the next display is to be held.
