Multi garden miniature railway - is this a first (indeed is it even real)

From Heritage Railway on Facebook

Local heritage rail fanatic Barry “The Bribe” Wainwright, 62, of Number 14 Rosehip Close, has successfully launched the UK’s first fully negotiated multi garden miniature railway after allegedly “reaching mutually beneficial financial arrangements” with every neighbour on the line.

The ambitious rail project runs a full circuit through six adjoining back gardens on Acacia Row, briefly crossing Mrs Patel’s begonias, narrowly missing Dave’s barbecue, and passing directly behind Sharon’s ornamental gnome collection, all thanks to what Barry describes as “community spirit and a few well placed incentives.”
