DoubleM Models

Hey look! It's another project loco that I'll spend weeks intermittently restoring!! 😂

Cleaned up the track on my layout and ran a quick test train! I'm glad it's all working OK, it's the 1st time I've ran a train on it in months and months! I might be bringing it along with me to a local event in November.

The difference almost 5 years makes! This is my original that started it all, and now it's had an update! The new one will be out early next week and also at the Waley At Statfold show this weekend. The sales of the kits there will go towards restoring the Glyn Valley Tramway! 😁

Stay tuned for a special update this weekend! Something new is coming at warley from DoubleM and I can guarantee one thing; "No one even makes this anymore" - Owner of DoubleM Models.

My friend sent me these photos of my 'Matchbox Diesel' kit that he's built, and he's done an awesome job! 😁

If you like the look of these, you can find the kits on my store;

I've spent a few days restoring this Langley Models kit of the Darjeeling B class and here she is!! She was in a sorry state when I got her but all her missing parts were in the box. I stripped all the paint and glue until everything was back to kit form and went from there!

Well it's definitely summer 🔥🔥 And I think that means it's time for a summer sale! There's a whopping 25% off my kits if you buy 2 or more until the end of June! 😁

Lots happening at the GVT! Concrete has been poured so we can start rebuilding our station building, and today, our frames for Locomotive No.5 have arrived!

The little Peckett W6 kits are now up on the store! I might do some more N scale bodykits in the future, I have a few locos in mind!

I'm taking a little venture into a new scale! This is the 1st print I've done for N gauge. It's a little Peckett W6 made for a 'Koppel A' chassis. I've got a few more little tweaks to do, but it's on track to be released on Monday! 😁

I now have a range of rollingstock bodyshell kits! These are all the kits I'm doing in the 1st phase, but there will be more in the future and I'll also be doing some multipacks.

There's 10% off when you buy multiple items until the 23rd of June!

We're all set up and ready to have an amazing weekend! If you're visiting Statfold, then you can't miss us at the GVT stand!

It's not long now until the Summer Spectacle of Steam at Statfold Barn! If you're visiting this weekend, then be sure to drop by and say hi to us at the Glyn Valley Tramway stand and see all that we're doing to rebuild the line!

More rolling stock kits are on the way! Like this brake van; coming out on the shop soon. It makes a nice little train when matched with my Quarryman's coach and Falcon locomotive! 😁

Huge thanks to SteR for reviewing my model kits on his channel! It’s always awesome seeing my kits out in the wild – and SteR did an amazing job with these!

Definitely check out his video and give him a follow – he's got some great content!

If you're attending Statfold's Spectacle of Steam event on the 7th and 8th of June, come and see the GVT stand! We'll have books and merch for sale. I'll also be selling DoubleM model kits, and it all goes towards rebuilding the tramway!

A quick preview of my next kit! I really enjoyed working on this one and researching the Darjeeling Himilayan Railway in India. Look out for its release this Thursday!

My next kit is out on the shop! The Unusual 4ft gauge Padarn Railway Hunslet loco. Three of these locos were built, but only a few parts still exist from one of the locos, Velinheli. Now their old line is gone, but the Llanberis Lake Railway follows their old route along the shore of Llyn Pararn!

Not just scale though, the same railway!

This uses the Electrotren 0-6-0 chassis. It's a very tight fit and I've not come across any alternative that will work.

Quick preview of my next kit! with a twist! The Padarn Railway was built to 4ft gauge. But because OO scale isn't perfect, the 16mm gauge works out pretty much at 4ft! And EM gauge is much closer to standard gauge at 18mm. So I've invented a new scale as there can't be too many! this will be... EMn4

Until the 3rd of May, there's 15% off on all my kits over on my etsy store! So if there's something you've been wanting for a while, then nows your chance!

I've been working on a new diesel kit, and here it is! It's inspired by the old matchbox toys, but someone pointed out it also bears a resemblance to Vlad from the Corris Railway. Either way, I'm really happy with how this one came out!

I forgot to share the finished picture of the Avonside B3! Here she is in the classic red that I paint most of my stock. 😁👍

My Peco Rail200 baseboard has arrived! So I've started planning what I want to make, there's some clues already with what's on the board. 😁👍

Here's another returning kit! This is modelled after a Fletcher Jennings A class. It's accurate to the original design, but with tramskirts added to hide away the Kato 109 chassis.

Earlier this year, I switched over to some new printers! As a result, I've been slowly updating my models, and I've re-built this older model long missing from my store. This is a Sentinel vertical boiler steam locomotive. The new version here is smaller and easier to print!

I've got a new kit out now on my etsy shop! This is an Avonside B3 class, made for the Electrotren 0-6-0 chassis.
