Custom Built Layouts:
In order to meet increasing demand for baseboards and ready to run layouts, unfortunately we can no longer offer the custom built layout service enjoyed by previous customers.  We still offer the custom build baseboard building service (see baseboard page for details).

If you require guidance on designing and building your model railway, here are a couple of useful sites:

XTrkCAD - An excellent and free model railway design tool.  Quite tricky to get the hang of initially, but print off the beginners guide and follow it step by step and you'll be designing your own layout in no time.

New Railway Modellers - a wealth of useful information from design and baseboard building to track wiring and scenery.

The layout arrived safely early yesterday and I would just like to record how delighted I am both with its quality and with the excellent communication and genuinely friendly service I have received throughout. With the 'difficult' bit out of the way (the track laying), and done to such a high standard, I can get on with the part of the modelling that really interests me. Thank you for doing such a great job."
