NeverEnuf is a Garden Railroad running scale model trains in a magical, miniature world. Laid out over 20,000sq ft, NeverEnuf presents sights of a world reduced to a scale of 1:32 (G scale) - all set in a beautifully landscaped one acre site.
Water bodies, brown rocky hills, and bouquets of colourful flowers... Neverenuf draws you into its miniature world where the trains hurtle across bridges and arduously trudge across hilly slopes. Feel the leisurely pace of sleepy towns and rustic villages. Take a leisurely stroll around NeverEnuf and see its little inhabitants going about their daily lives. Try your hand at remote controlled boats in the wharf. Or turn on the lights, sound and smoke at the touch of a button. There’s a lot to do. Or, if you choose - nothing at all! Just relax in a hammock and soak in the sights. An ongoing development project, NeverEnuf is always far from completion.

A brief note on Railway Modelling
Railmodelling begins with a passion for trains and miniatures. It is an extremely relaxing, creative and fun hobby that can last literally a lifetime – from the toddler years through retirement. The affair begins with a “train set” which embodies everything that one loves about mechanics, electricals and electronics. The model train engine itself is an outstanding piece of engineering reproducing minute details of its prototype and has to be regularly serviced and maintained. The track is an inexhaustible geometric puzzle and the modeller’s layout often seeks inspiration from real world routes. Model trains can be very engaging and challenging, requiring an ever ascending learning curve. Attention to detail becomes a high priority and the railmodeller grows into a sponge absorbing minute bytes of information. While one hobbyist excels at the historic accuracy of his creation, another takes pride in the technical edge; and still another is quite content being an armchair enthusiast. This hobby can see one develop all sorts of skills - masonary, carpentary, soldering, painting, sculptoring, gardening... no doubt it is called the greatest hobby of all times.
Scale and Gauge
Over the years, certain ratios of miniaturisation have become industry standards assuring compatibility between different manufacturers.
NeverEnuf has layouts in G and HO scale. G scale implies a ratio of 1:32 (the model is 1/32 of its original size) and the distance between the two tracks (referred to as the gauge) is 45mm. However, in HO things get smaller – 1:76 and the gauge is 16.5mm. Owing to its large size, G is most suitable for running outdoors and the equipment available is also rugged and weather resistant. While HO’s size makes it an ideal solution for indoor layouts, at NeverEnuf it has been used for outdoors too, with satisfactory results so far.
