Well this is a beauty!! Cavalex’s new class 56 release. This one is a rails exclusive - and wow it looks wonderful! The large logo livery looks awesome and I can’t wait to detail it up and give it a light weathering #train #trains #model #modelrailway #TMRG #TMRGUK

Today was a Growler fest passing my office in Nottingham - no less than 6!!! Plus a re-geared 66 on the Boston steel for good measure. #train #trains #model #modelrailway #projectrainset #trainporn #TMRGUK

Unusual but very welcome to see a GBRF class 60 at Leicester but lovely to see 60095 coming though last weekend. Can’t remember the working but was taken on the 18th. #train #trains #model #modelrailway #TMRG #TMRGUK

Plenty on shed tonight at Birchley Heath. A class 58 is lifted off its bogies in the shed and the RTC’s 97201 is a rare visitor. #train #trains #model #modelrailway #TMRG #TMRGUK

89001 making its way through the yards at Birchley Heath, and then passing at speed on the charter rake. I cannot praise this model highly enough - they really have captured the look of this unique locomotive brilliantly. #train #trains #model #modelrailway #TMRG #TMRGUK

Oh now this is special! The badger has landed and it’s looking absolutely fabulous! I still remember my excitement of seeing this hauling a test train through Crewe not long after it was built. #train #trains #model #modelrailway #TMRG #TMRGUK

Went in Glenfield tunnel today. Glenfield is a village just outside Leicester and the tunnel, when built in 1832 was the longest railway tunnel in the world! Now closed of course but opens occasionally to visitors #train #trains #model #modelrailway #TMRG #TMRGUK
