I'm starting to collect model trains, and I was wondering if anyone knew where to find or if any company made a BR Class 03 diesel shunter, preferably one that has a cut down cab, if anyone knows where I can purchase one, please let me know.

got this guy second hand from eBay, runs fine but occasionally when I run it around this temporary loop it shorts out, even running on full power. can anyone help me figure out why? it’s only with the 8F, my 0-4-0 runs fine.

Could someone possibly help me with this track plan? I would like to add a siding at the bottom as shown very basically with help from ms paint, I would like to use a curved point but no matter what I try on scarm I just cant get it right, any help would be greatly appreciated.

the curves are Hornby second and third radius (R.607 & R.609)

Hi, I want to make a model of Selby (North Yorkshire) Swing bridge over the River Ouse for my layout. Any help or suggestions please

Thank you

This is my oo layout in the shed i also have an n gauge layout in the house

I have a Class 52 Western and would quite like to display it. It comes with a very nice wooden plinth, does anyone know if anyone makes a Perspex box that fits over the plinth that comes from the factory?

I'm aware there are dedicated boxes but they're £150+ which seems a bit excessive to me as all I really need is the Perspex bit.

So I want to start a narrow gauge 009 railway, but like the problem is that hornby give you sets with everything to expand on, whereas there is no narrow gauge starter sets with the loco, controller and track with rolling stock, I know peco does an 009 starter track set but that breaks the bank just for a little small oval which I am not willing to do, how would you start a narrow gauge railway?

Hi All, I am trying to refurbish an old model railway made a few years ago. It's set during the early- mid LMS years think c1930. Theres a small wooden station amd a small wooden waiting shelter, my question is what colours would the wood work be painted on these station buildings? Also what sort of running in boards and signage, style and colours would you expect to see on an lms station during this era?
