Defiance joins the fleet 😀 Nosejob and full #Shawplan treatment; conversion to EM; along with replacement grilles from a Lima Body. My first full respray (well 3rd as thats how many attempts I did!). I'm quite pleased with how it's ended up. I do like a #Hornby #Class50.

@morval_oo Motors cost pennies... especially the cheap rubbish in quite a few popular brands. You'd have to tool up different bogies/chassis to allow free rolling so it won't be cheaper (less demand for unpowered)

I wonder if there is a UK market for non-motorised model locos fir use in double-heading? DCC lights/sound etc, all wheel pickups, no motor, no gearing. Cheaper. #tmrguk

We would like to wish all of our customers and followers a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year. 2025 has been another busy year for Cavalex and we would like to thank everyone that has supported us over the past year. Merry Christmas!

Ready to go at @DemuShowcase !

expoEM is now open - Bracknell Leisure Centre. Whether a committed modeller or as a passing interest, well worth a visit.

Cavalex Models are pleased to share a video update on our Class 60, explaining the background and details of the project throughout the process. We have also included our own Class 60 footage from Brush works in 1990! Watch the full video here: youtu.be/O7uHdsdFA2w?si…

I’m really pleased to see my efforts on converting Bachmann class 117 into a class 121 DTS in this months @DemuShowcase magazine #109. If you’re not a member and like me like the odd diesel then it’s really worth joining! demu.org.uk #EMgauge #TMRGUK #ModelRailway

How to make #ModelTrainShow2025 bigger and better: 1. Repost this (please) 2. That is all (thank you) (Oh, if you want to know what this is all about, please read the pinned post)

At the recent AGM, Peter Hill took the prize in the Scratchbuilt and Kitbuilt Motive Power category for this model of Barclay Tank No 18. A great example of modelling. Full details on our website emgs.org/news/

I guess it counts as modelling. Backscenes and front fascia fitted to the station board to match the bridge boards done a week or so ago. #TMRGUK #EMgauge

The new Cavalex 4mm Class 60 has arrived! Deliveries with retailers start today after the remaining running numbers arrived with us earlier this week. Look out for an in depth look at our Class 60 coming soon post delivery with retailers.

Cavalex Models are pleased to share that our brand new Class 60 in 4mm scale will be arriving with retailers in early February 2025, with the first shipment from China due with us imminently.

Just had a rather excellent day at the Define show operating the rather excellent Horncastle. A really fun layout to operate! A nice @cavalexmodels project appeared alongside a fabulous 31. #TMRGUK

@cavalexmodels Merry Christmas 🎅

We would like to wish all of our customers and followers a Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year. 2024 was a significant milestone for Cavalex Models seeing the arrival of our Class 56 and we would like to thank everyone that has supported us over the past year.

#WhatsOnTheWorkbench - so here's a workbench round up of projects I'm currently pushing through the paintshop. Class 901 is getting its etched windows, the 73s are ready for their stripes, and lower greys and 3417 is ripe for lining and transfers. #VariousMultipleUnits #TMRGUK

@NSE_Latchmere Fantastic! Guess what I've just drawn for cutting 😀 I'm quite enjoying messing about with these nicely made models.

Wow. Now THIS is an improvement on the new 159!! Whadda ya think?!? #TMRGUK #NetworkSoutheast #modelrailways #modeltrains #BritishRail

#WhatsOnTheWorkbench - paintshop week for 3417, 73130, 73212, 73125, 73114, & 901001. Having got over a cold this week, I hope to have the lot done by the end of next week. Given there are no NSE stripes, I'm hopeful this'll go fairly smoothly 😂 #VariousMultipleUnits #TMRGUK

New video! Im working on my little steam shed to enlarge it for exhibition use, so i can bring something smaller to shows. youtu.be/tcfAvuBUHYM?si…

Looking forward to visiting the @southdevonrly tomorrow with @DCRailOfficial and @CappaghGroup . We will have samples of the @Hornbymag exclusive 60029 on display throughout the day. Photo Courtesy Mike Wild

Always a pleasure to be invited by @DCRailOfficial and @CappaghGroup to visit the prototype - we had a great day comparing our model of 028 with the real thing. Our thanks to UKRL at Leicester, DCRail and Danny Sladdin for hosting us yesterday.
