As a family-run business with over 50 years of experience, we take pride in offering a vast range of products, expert advice, and a passion for the hobby that matches your own. Being recognised for our efforts is a huge honour and we greatly appreciate all of your support so far.

UPDATED WEBSITE We launched an overhauled version of our website with enhanced search features and quicker navigation!
HATTONS RESSURECTED Following their unfortunate closure, we brought back the Hattons brand and retained their wonderful product directory.
NEW SELF-SERVICE TRADE IN Building on the popular 'Hattons Model Money', we introduced a new self-service preowned trade in system at modelrailways.co.uk
IMPROVED SHIPPING OPTIONS Based on your feedback, we have introduced new shipping options this year, including cheaper international services.
SUSTAINABILITY INITIATIVES ALL of our packaging materials are now 100% recyclable and we have introduced energy saving schemes at our main warehouse including solar panels and underfloor heating.
SUPPORTING HERITAGE We were delighted to support various charities in 2024, including a donation to the CR 828 Trust to help them care for this gorgeous locomotive.
