Due to the popularity of our products the tax man has decided to get
involved. However, instead of buying some, he instead has decided to take
20% on everything we sell! Long story short we've had to become vat
registered and as a consequence have had to review our pricing, which to be
honest was long overdue anyway. We will continue to try and provide a first
class product and service and thank you for your previous business and
hopefully continued support.

We are branching out into DCC sound and lights on modern image N gauge
locomotives. We are initially concentrating on Class 37 and 66 in the
liveries offered by Bachmann Farish which will be used as the base model. A
link to a demo video will be available shortly, the spec will be using ESU
Loksound with Olivia's Trains sound files and the locomotives will have
operational marker lights with independent control of headlights and tail
lights. These locomotives are available on a build to order basis. Contact

We now have a supply of N gauge ground shunt signals item code SN17RW. These
tiny units have a new moulded base and utilise extremely small LEDS in order

tiny LEDS is remarkable.

order please call us to discuss the expected shipping date.

We are pleased to advise that we now hold a stock of Heathcote Electronics signal control modules which enable our signals to switch automatically as
a train passes the signal. Multiple signals can be linked so that the aspects switch sequentially as the train progresses along the track.
If the module you require is not listed, please let us know so that we can build up the stock that you require.
-
Our OO gauge range is enhanced by the introduced of multiple route
indicators with a lower pivot light. These can be added to any of our
signals and with the introduction of a position light signal we now offer a
large variety of options to give you the signal you require.

Pricing Review – Our pricing has been reviewed and adjusted in order to
enable our products to be sold through retail outlets, enabling further
exposure to the modelling community. In some cases this has led to an above
average uplift in the prices charged for our models. That said, we feel that
the new pricing structure better reflects the amount of effort that we put
into making our models, brings us into line with our competitors and should
also allow us to develop our range into the future.

Custom Build - We now offer a unique service to build signals to your
specification, just send us the details of your requirements and we will
provide a quote by return.
