August 2026
With a fine summer now upon us, it's time for our annual garden railway feature in Railway of the Month: this year we revisit the Daws Heath Garden Railway, an extensive OO gauge system which previously appeared in the magazine over a quarter of a century ago – in the May 1999 issue – and, remarkably, is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year. Continuing the outdoor railway theme, Bob Hordern shows how he constructed a new, demountable outdoor section to extend his garage-based, U-shaped O gauge layout into a continuous run – weather permitting!
Other layouts featured include Totnes – a spectacular N gauge Great Western Railway main line, which will be making its final public appearance at the Railwells exhibition on 8 & 9 August; the 3mm scale model built by famous artist David Shepherd, part of which is now on display at the East Somerset Railway which he founded; and Nant Gwernol, an OO9 tribute to the Talyllyn Railway, the pioneering line that celebrates 75 years of preservation this year. We also reintroduce our 'Junior Modeller' section with one of the finalists in the 2025 Peco RAIL200 Model Layout Competition, built by 13-year-old Harry Symonds.
Modelling articles include the construction of a Furness Railway 10-ton brake van in OO gauge by Ian Nuttall, a Hull & Barnsley Railway H1 Class 2-4-0 in 7mm scale built by Nick Dunhill in support of a charitable cause, and techniques for making shop fronts in card by Adrian Cook. 
New products reviewed include the first London Underground tube train to be offered ready-to-run in N gauge – the 1938 Stock by Revolution Trains – plus curved OO bullhead points and TT:120 LMS vans from Peco.

RAILWAY MODELLER July 2026 Vol.77 No.909

In the July 2026 issue of Railway Modeller, we are giving readers the chance to win an OO gauge limited edition Cavalex model of the Class 56 diesel locomotive that was named after Peco and Railway Modeller in 2016: for your chance to win, see page 571 of the magazine and answer one simple question via the Railway Modeller website.
Gracing the cover of the magazine is the new Manning Wardle L Class 0-6-0 saddle tank in OO gauge from Rapido Trains UK, with our sample depicting preserved example Matthew Murray and posed on a diorama representing part of the real locomotive's home line, the historic Middleton Railway in Leeds. Inside the magazine, we review the new model, and Callum Willcox describes how he constructed the diorama. 
Railway of the Month is Lydbrook Dean, a superb OO gauge model of a freight-only branch line in the Forest of Dean – which, though not representing a real location, has perfectly captured the atmosphere of such half-forgotten byways towards the end of the British Railways steam era. Other layouts featured include an OO gauge model of Brent station and the Kingsbridge branch in Devon, housed inside a shipping container in Cyprus; Whittingly Hospital, an OO micro layout inspired by private railways serving mental hospitals, which was one of the finalists in the Peco RAIL200 Model Layout Competition; and Culthwaite, an N gauge exhibition layout based on the famous Settle & Carlisle line.
Constructional articles include a fleet of Class 121 and 122 'bubble car' diesel railcars in EM gauge; a 1:148 scale model of Bradford Cathedral, which will be on display in the real building this summer; and a Collett '9700' Class pannier tank in O gauge, created with a conversion kit for a Minerva Model Railways ready-to-run model.

RAILWAY MODELLER May 2026 Vol.77 No.907

The May 2026 issue of Railway Modeller celebrates several significant anniversaries, with a special commemorative booklet to mark 80 years of Peco. It is also 150 years since the birth of Sir William Stanier, the celebrated Chief Mechanical Engineer of the London Midland & Scottish Railway, for which Garry Hall describes how he modelled Stanier's streamlined Princess Coronation Pacific locomotive and the 'Coronation Scot' express train of 1937 in the new TT:120 scale, while we provide TT:120 scale drawings of these locomotives in their non-streamlined form which Stanier himself preferred! Finally, Jackie Kneeshaw, Chairman of the Gauge O Guild, marks the 70th anniversary of that organisation with a special Milepost feature. 
Railway of the Month is Aston Cote, an OO gauge model of a proposed but never built rail link between Fairford and Cirencester in Gloucestershire, built by John Rose in the style of the well-known Pendon Museum layout. Other layouts featured include The Yard (a 7mm scale industrial scene with working remote-control cranes and lorries); Project New Street, an OO gauge cameo of part of Birmingham New Street station which won the 2025 Peco RAIL200 Model Layout Competition; and an OO9 cameo of the Ffestiniog Railway Boston Lodge engine shed, which can portray several periods in the line's long history.
