I am currently constructing a British based model railway. Based in the 1960's, the layout also includes a London Transport section. The LT station being adjacent to the BR one. As such, I am building a number of LT models.

This layout is only in the early stages, so as yet, I can only display a few pictures of the stock I have already built. The site will be updated as work progresses.

Completed so far are a Metropolitan Railway Bo-Bo electric No.8 'Sherlock Holmes', a Battery Electric, a set of four Dreadnought carriages, a three car P stock unit, a three car 1938 tube stock unit, a lightly modified Bachmann Pannier Tank and a four car Metropolitan A60 unit. As I now have three locomotives, I have decided to start building some of the service stock. So far, I have built some Ballast Wagons and a BR type brake van and a Cravens type brake van, but will include some open bogie wagons, rail wagons and cable wagons.

EFE have produced some tube stock, the first type is the 1938 stock in various liveries and has been followed by some 1959/62 stock, also in various liveries. It's just typical that someone should do this after I have just built some 1938 stock! However, such is life. Fortunately, both Metro Models and Branchlines supply motorising kits for the EFE stock. I have purchased some 1938 and 1959 stock and successfully motorised both units. As I have 4 car units, I have motorised both 'A' and 'D' end cars.

After a bit of a lull in construction, I will attempt some 1934 standard tube stock, some R47 or F surface stock as well as a Met. E Class loco, one of which survived into Engineering Stock as L44 and is now preserved.

Availability of LT Models and Accessories

I am often asked where you can obtain UndergrounD models from and what is available. As such, I have compiled a list of items that I know have been produced. Strangely enough, I think you'll be surprised that there is actually quite a lot of items available for this very popular but rarely modelled British railway system, as the following list will show. I have included all items known to have been produced, but some manufacturers and suppliers are no longer in business. I have included them as sometimes these items come up on the secondhand market, such as swapmeets, eBay or the like. In addition to kits, Metro Models, Radley Models and Silver Fox can offer some of their products as completed RTR items.

The list comprises of products and suppliers. The product list is sub-divided and you can jump to particular sections by using the quick link headings. If you want to jump straight to the suppliers list, click here!

Thanks go to both John Polley of Metro Models, Phil Radley of Radley Models and John Hazleton of Silver Fox Models who have kept me updated with their products.
