A well finished, solid baseboard is the essential starting point for model railway construction.Gallery

Our standard boards are constructed on a 44mm x 21mm soft wood frame with cross members to provide support behind.  They are surfaced with 9mm plywood painted green. The cross members are slotted to allow wires to run adjacent to the board.

Please note, to avoid material wastage baseboard sizes quoted are nominal (typically to a tolerance of up to 5mm).  If the dimensions of the baseboards are critical, please let us know when placing your order.

Baseboard Legs
Our baseboards are available with or without white tubular steel legs with plastic adjustable feet. They are 800mm high and each leg is screwed to the baseboard frame with four wood screws.  Stand alone boards which are up to four feet long require require four supporting legs, whilst boards over four feet long require six legs.  Multiple board cofigurations often require fewer legs per board.
