Diesel Multiple Units as they were meant to be.

The second most popular gauge in the industrial/preservation scene(after Standard gauge). This collection includes both Diesel & Petrol locomotives. Loco's marked {S/O} are Steam Outline only.

Most of these locomotives are in fact battery-electric, and nearly all of them are current/former Industrial locos. This gauge being the second most popular(after Standard Gauge).

The majority of these engines are preserved,with some of them having being previously used in the industrial scene.Again like the diesels, this is the second most popular gauge used(after Standard gauge).

This collection features the various rolling stock(of all gauges), that was built abroad & is now or was previously running or on display in the UK.

The hard working engines which are part of our nations industrial scene.

Standard gauge Industrial Electric & Battery-Electric locomotives.

The hard working predecessors to the Industrial Diesels.

Vehicles that were former Capitol Stock/Departmental Stock, which were usuallly confined to within a specific depot or location(normally as static use).

Covering everything from Tampers and Ballast Regulators to Cranes and Track Relaying Machines etc.

These range in this case from 5" to 12.1/4" gauge. They are mostly operational although there are a couple of Non-Working(NWM) models enclosed. They are mainly found at tourist attractions/seasides/public parks etc.

They come in many forms ; from the Traditional Solid Cast Plates, to the lesser thin 'aluminium types', right down to the usually unofficial painted ones.

A collection of diesel/petrol locomotives between 2ft & Standard Gauge. Locos marked {S/O} means that they are Steam Outline only.

Electric/Battery-Electric Locomotives between 2ft & Standard Gauge, the majority are current/former Industrial locos.

Steam locomotives between 2ft & Standard Gauge, the majority of which are preserved locos, although some are former Industrial ones.

A photographers challenge/nightmare - try avoiding getting people in your shots(a great deal of patience is required), however if you are rushed for time,you usually just shoot & hope for the best.

Before British Railways was formed in 1948,stock was owned by the so-called 'BIG FOUR' - namely the Great Western Railway, London,Midland & Scottish Railway, London & North Eastern Railway & Southern Railway.
This gallery concentrates on the passenger carrying stock of these & any that were owned by various railways prior to 1923.

Covers the vehicles that are Privately owned by companies, but run on the mainline.

Looks at these luxurious railway carriages.

From the early days of Hand Cranes through to todays Mega-Monsters they're all here.

This gallery covers those freight vehicles that operate on the continent and are Registered to run in this country.{RIV = Registered International Vehicles}.They are the ones that you see with the long numbers(12 digits)on them.

An essential latter day piece of equipment required for track maintenance etc.

Covers all the smaller items of Track Maintenance plant - ie Ballast Packers, Lifter & Slewers etc.

The Electric Multiple Units that ran on the Southern Region.

These lovable Diesel-Electric Multiple units were affectionately known by the collection title.

Once something that the majority of Towns & Cities in the UK had running through their streets on a daily basis.

London & Glasgow Underground vehicles and the various Light Rail Systems around the country.

A look at these widely used Engineers Trolleys.
