Great news, the Pannier Tanks and second run of Class 66s from Accurascale are on their way to us and should be here within the next week or so. The Panniers will be delivered first.

Both the Class 66s and Pannier Tanks are sold out on pre-order with Accurascale. We have limited numbers of Panniers available to purchase, and a healthy stock of Class 66s available.

It's good timing for a last minute Christmas present, so why not treat yourself to one of Accurascale's highly detailed models.

The Pannier Tanks can be found here: https://afx.one/74a58f57

Fancy a cuppa when you visit?

Our visitors are more than welcome to have a Tea or Coffee with some biscuits, feel free to ask Mark for one. He would be more than happy to provide you with a refreshing drink this winter, to help keep you feeling warm inside.

Toilets are also available on site too, should you need to relieve yourself before your return journey home.

We hope to see you soon!

Friendly reminder - please refrain from visiting if you are feeling unwell or contagious.

Coughs and sneezes spread germs and diseases!

As we enter the colder months, we also face the onset of coughs, colds, and the flu season. Additionally, some individuals are still showing symptoms of COVID. We truly enjoy sharing our time with you (after all, sharing is caring), but we respectfully ask that you keep your germs to yourself while you are experiencing symptoms.

We frequently interact with a significant number of vulnerable individuals, and we would hate to put them at risk. Moreover, Mark cannot afford to fall ill as there is no backup staff for the workshop. If he becomes contagious, it would force the workshop to close, leading to unexpected delays in jobs and orders.

While this may seem like common sense to many, we still feel the need to remind you to stay home, recover, and feel better before visiting.

Thank you so much for your understanding.

Next weekend, Andrew and I (Mark) will be attending the Spalding Model Railway Exhibition at the Springfields Events Centre, PE12 6ET.

The doors will open at 10:00 on both days and will close at 17:00 on Saturday and 16:30 on Sunday.

You can find us in the same location as last year, which is stand 13 in Hall 2.

Locating us is very easy; we've highlighted the fastest route on the map below! However, you might also enjoy taking the scenic route to explore all the layouts first.

We look forward to seeing you there, if you can make it.

The order book for the Class 92s will close on Friday 10th October. The order books for the Manors have already closed.

All livery variants (both DCC and Sound Fitted) are listed on our website and avaiilable to pre-order.

A small deposit of £20 is required to secure your order, and payment for the rest isn't due until the model arrives. Grab yours here: https://afx.one/e9d20b63

We are thrilled to announce that Accurascale has just revealed a new batch of their highly sought-after OO Gauge Class 60 diesel locomotives!

Following closely on the heels of the first batch that recently arrived in stock, this second run features four new models to select from, including the Railfreight Petroleum Sector livery, early EW&S maroon & gold livery, Colas Rail Freight livery, and the exclusive DB Cargo 'Puma Energy' grey livery.

All these models are now available to pre-order from Mark's Trains, set for release in Q4 2026, either as DCC Ready or DCC Sound Fitted! Additionally, we also have a limited selection of Run 1 available for order right now.

In order to assist modellers facing increasing living expenses, Accurascale are maintaining the same excellent value prices as the initial batch. The prices for these models remain consistent with Run 1, providing an outstanding value of £169.99 for DCC Ready and £269.99 for DCC Sound Fitted.

Grab a 60 from Run 1 whilst stocks last, or pre-order from Run 2 here: https://afx.one/54f4f48a
